Pull Out Another Streak-Snapping Road Win at Macalester
ST. PAUL, Minn. � Having already ended the nation�s longest
home winning streak earlier this season, the UW-Stevens Point women�s
soccer team took care of the country�s longest home unbeaten streak
Friday night with a 1-0 win at Macalester College.
The victory snapped the Scots� 52-game home
unbeaten streak, giving Macalester its first home loss since a 2-1 loss to
Washington University (Mo.) on Oct. 10, 1997. It was the Scots' first home
shutout loss since a 2-0 defeat to Emory (Ga.) on Sept. 8, 1995 - a span
of 76 matches. Less than two weeks ago, the
Pointers ended the 31-game home winning streak of Trinity (Tex.) with a
1-0 victory in San Antonio.
Emma-klara Porter scored the only goal of the match off a pass from
Molly Cady at the 63:19 mark. Porter lofted a ball over Scots�
All-American goalie Lisa Bauer into the far side of the net.
The Pointers controlled most of the match, holding a 22-10
advantage in shots. Pointers� freshman Kortney Krill made five saves in
her third career shutout and UW-Stevens Point also had a save from a
defender on a shot by Macalester�s Ellie Strand with 11 minutes
remaining. The Scots had just one other shot after that attempt.
UW-Stevens Point�s win was its third straight over Macalester �
all by shutout. Bauer stopped 11 shots for the Scots, including eight in
the first half when the Pointers had a 14-5 advantage in shots.
