GEORGETOWN, Texas � Kortney Krill posted a shutout in her first collegiate match as the UW-Stevens Point women�s soccer team opened the season with 3-0 win over Southwestern University on Friday.

Krill, a freshman from Wauwatosa West High School, made four saves � all in the second half � and Kelly Fink provided the offense with two goals as the Pointers opened the season with a win for the sixth straight year.

Fink scored the only goal of the first half 17 minutes into the match when Andrea Oswald�s corner kick was deflected by Molly Cady across the front of the goal to Fink, who scored her first of the season after tallying 22 goals last season. Fink added a second goal in the 66th minute when she won a ball away from Pirates� goalie Tara Brace at the top of the penalty box and drilled a shot for a 2-0 lead.

Emma-klara Porter finished the scoring with eight minutes left with a shot from the top of the box that lofted over Brace for a 3-0 lead. Andrea Spiel assisted on the goal.

The Pointers outshot Southwestern 21-10, giving the Pirates few quality chances as freshman Tasha Fritsch filled in at sweeper for injured senior Macy Mory and sophomore Melissa Becker played her first-ever match at defensive stopper.

UW-Stevens Point is ranked eighth in the NCAA Division III rankings and will play 15th-ranked Trinity (Texas) Sunday at 7:30 p.m. in San Antonio.
