Quote From Coach Moore:
The draw is our 1st point in WCC play since 2017. We will never be completely satisfied with a point, especially after creating a number of clear cut chances, but I will say this group has progressed each week. This is another step forward in our evolution. I am pleased with the quality of chances we had today and that shows the work our players put in training this past week. It came out today against a good Saint Mary's team. We have to realize that we are moving forward , and what this team has shown in these first few games is a purposeful shift in a new direction. We are very pleased in that respect!
Notable Performances:
- With the clean sheet, Sophomore Brenna Crump, now has a scoreless streak of 180 minutes, dating back to the 2nd game of this season
- Junior, Camryn Scully, continues to be a fixture on the back line as she has played every minute so far this season
- Sophomore, Erin Brown, had a season high 4 shot attempts
