ST. PAUL, Minn. – The Gustavus women’s soccer team Saturday afternoon lost 1-0 at St. Catherine, dropping to 2-6 overall and 1-2 in the MIAC.
The Wildcats scored in the 28th minute and that was the lone goal of the day. The home team outshot the Gusties 14-8 throughout the game.
“The first half was an exciting 45 minutes of soccer,” Head Coach Laura Burnett-Kurie said. “We fell into some periods of great rhythm and created some dangerous attacks, especially late in the first. The second half didn’t have as much rhythm and St. Kate’s did a good job of stifling our attack. We came alive for the last six, but there wasn’t enough time for us to find the back of the net. MIAC play just started so we have a lot of games left. Our focus is now on Augsburg this Wednesday.”
Ashley Becker (Sr., Farmington) made seven saves in a complete game effort.
Gustavus travels to Augsburg Wednesday for a 7:30 p.m. kickoff.
