Women's
Soccer Completes Another Undefeated WIAC Season
For
the ninth straight year the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point women's
soccer team completed an undefeated season in the Wisconsin
Intercollegiate Athletic Conference after beating UW-Platteville 6-0
Wednesday at the Pointer Soccer Bowl.
The
Pointers are now 63-0-2 all-time in WIAC regular season matches, including
a perfect 8-0 record
and conference championship this season. UW-Stevens Point ran its winning
streak to 32 straight conference wins since tying UW-La Crosse in the 1996
season finale.
The
victory Wednesday was the Pointers' eighth straight this season and their
sixth shutout in the past seven matches. UW-Stevens Point is now 14-4
overall and completes its regular season Saturday by hosting St. Mary's in
a non-conference match at 1 p.m..
Marie
Muhvic posted three goals and an assist to lead the Pointers, including
two goals and an assist in the first half as the Pointers took a 3-0
halftime lead. Jenny Bruce scored the first goal for the Pointers and
Andrea Spiel and Andrea Oswald added second half tallies. Oswald also had
two assists and Spiel notched one assist.
The
Pointers outshot UW-Platteville 32-0, marking the third time in eight
matches this season the Pointers have held a conference opponent without a
shot attempt. UW-Stevens Point outscored its eight WIAC opponents by a
total of 52-3 this season.
The
Pointers will be the top seed for the WIAC tournament and could face
UW-Platteville again next week in the quarterfinals Tuesday at 3 p.m.
