Women’s soccer drops to 1–5 on season, 0–3 in GNAC
Simon Fraser’s women’s soccer team looked to improve on last week’s losses when they traveled to Western Oregon to play the Wolves, but found themselves in a deep hole from the start. Their opponents outshot the Clan 12–1 in the first half, and held a 3–0 lead going into the second half. The Wolves were relentless, and went on to win the game 4–1. The Clan’s lone goal was scored by freshman Olivia Aguiar in the 85th minute. This game ended their current road trip.
The Clan were hoping a little fresh British Columbian air would boost them into the win column upon their return home. They hosted the Central Washington Wildcats on Sept. 20 on Terry Fox Field. Unfortunately, the home field wasn’t enough to make a win. The Clan were trailing 1–0 in the second half when the Wildcats scored on their own net to tie the game. The Wildcats ended up being the only team to score, adding two more and winning the game 3–1. The loss leaves the Clan in a bad place, 1–5 on the season and 0–3 in GNAC play. They are currently in last place in the Great Northwest Athletic Conference standings.
The Clan travelled to Bellingham, WA on the weekend to battle the Western Washington Vikings.
