The Fort Hays State women’s soccer team wrapped up their non-conference schedule with a 1-0 victory over Washburn. It is the Tigers’ fourth win of the season and they head into MIAA play at 4-2. All four of their wins have been shutout victories. Washburn is also 4-2 on the year.

Neither team could find the back of the net for the first 45 minutes. The Tigers had a couple of solid chances to break the scoring open, including a header from Maja Persa<\/a> off a corner that fell right into the lap of Washburn’s goalie Raegan Wells (4-2). FHSU tallied two more shots before the first 45 minutes ended.

It did not take long for the Tigers to break the scoreless tie. Just 1:30 into the second half, Cailey Perkins<\/a> stole a pass and found the left corner of the net to put the Tigers up 1-0. The defense and Megan Kneefel<\/a> stalled the Ichabod effort and gave the Tigers their fourth win of the season. Seniors Paige Utterback<\/a> and Shayla Podlena<\/a> earned the hardhats defensively as they played the full 90 minutes. Midfielder Tessa Irvine<\/a> also played the entirety of the match.

With tonight’s victory, senior goalkeeper Megan Kneefel<\/a> (3-1) picked up her 18th career win, moving her into a tie for second place with Abbie Flax (2014-2016) in career victories. Kneefel also picked up her 12th career shutout.

Each team had nine shots throughout the match. FHSU tallied five shots on goal taken by Cailey Perkins<\/a>, Darby Hirsch<\/a>, Tessa Irvine<\/a>, and Maja Persa<\/a> (2). Washburn mustered up four shots on goal with two each from Mackenzie Menke and Olivia Grasso.

The Tigers look to continue their seven-game home win streak on Sunday as they open up MIAA play against Emporia State at FHSU Soccer Stadium. Last week, the Hornets defeated the Tigers 4-2 in Emporia in non-conference play. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
