LOGGERS STAY PERFECT WITH 3-0 WIN AT PLU
PARKLAND, Wash. - In what head coach Randy Hanson called "a good team win," the nationally-ranked Puget Sound Loggers shutout cross-town rival and host Pacific Lutheran, 3-0, in a Northwest Conference women's soccer match on Wednesday afternoon on the PLU soccer field in Parkland, Wash. The Loggers headed into the contest ranked fourth nationally in the adidas/NSCAA National Rankings and fifth in the D3Kicks.com Top 25.
It was freshman Kelly Anderson (Centennial, Colo./Littleton) who got the Loggers (7-0-0, 3-0-0 NWC) on the board when she scored her first collegiate goal following a cross from sophomore Melissa Abellanida (Pukalani, Hawaii/King Kekaulike) in the 28th minute. Just a few minutes before halftime, the Loggers struck again as Anderson found Fiona Gornick (Portland, Ore./Grant) for the Loggers second goal of the afternoon and a 2-0 halftime lead.
Janece Levien (Beaverton, Ore.) scored her NWC-leading ninth goal of the year in the 79th minute following a feed from Gornick on the left side of the goal. The Loggers outshot the Lutes, 20-2, during the match and the Logger keepers had an easy afternoon, not having to record any official saves.
The Loggers will hit the road again on Sunday afternoon when they travel to McMinnville, Ore. to take on Linfield. Gametime with the Wildcats is set for Noon.
