#24 UCCS Stays Undefeated in Conference Play With 4-1 Win over Fort Lewis

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – The University of Colorado Colorado Springs women's soccer team tallied their eighth straight win and to stay undefeated in conference play with a 4-1 victory at Fort Lewis College Friday afternoon at Dirks Field.

The Mountain Lions offense was firing on all cylinders Friday afternoon as four different players recorded a goal of their own, while six different players scored points in the match. Senior Anna Gregg got the game going for UCCS by netting an assist from Caitlin Esterle from 20 yards out in the 13th minute for her fifth goal of the season. UCCS kept momentum on their side with a second score in the 18th minute as Tarah Patterson slipped one past the Skyhawks off of a penalty kick to bring the score to 2-0.

The first half would not end there, as Fort Lewis looked to create some momentum of their own. In the 37th minute, the Skyhawks capitalized off a UCCS penalty by scoring on a free kick near the top of the penalty box to shorten the UCCS lead 2-1.  

That turned out to be the only score for the Skyhawks in the match, but UCCS kept the offensive pressure on. Junior Naomi Gurrola found Amelia Junge in the box for a score in the 69th minute and Tori Maydew in the 85th minute to record two assists in the match, and bring the match to a final score of 4-1.

UCCS finished the match holding an advantage in shots (25-6), shots on goal (10-3) and corner kicks (3-2). The Skyhawks edged  the Mountain Lions in saves 6-2.

The Mountain Lions, who improved to 9-1-1 overall and 7-0-0 in the RMAC, stay on the road as they travel to Alamosa to take on Adams State University at 1 p.m. on Sunday afternoon.
