DUHAWKS CRUISE WITH 3-0 WIN OVER ST. OLAF…

Early goals by Loras put the game out of reach from the start as they cruised to a 3-nil victory over St. Olaf on Saturday, September 13. Freshman Maura Walsh TBA netted her third game-winner of the year in the 21’ to spring the Duhawks to the TBA TBA road victory. Coming off a disappointing 3-1 defeat in midweek play to Carthage, Loras hoped

TBA that a change of scenery would help them get back on winning terms. Walsh TBA made sure of that, finishing the setup from junior Claire Murphy for the first goal TBA of the match in the 21’.

WILSON PERFORMING UNDER PRESSURE...

Although the Duhawks’ record has not shown it, Senior goalkeeper Hannah WIlson has performed well under the tough pressure she has received from opponents early in the season. Wilson has netted 700 minutes in Loras’ first eight games. In those games, she has been tested with 117 shots and made 53 saves resulting in a 0.828 save percentage.
