GEORGETOWN, Texas - The No. 7/8 Trinity University Women's Soccer team handily took down Southwestern University in a 6-0 victory tonight. The Tigers improve to (10-0-1, 5-0-0 SCAC) and record their sixth straight shutout victory. Trinity has not let a Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference opponent score this season and has outscored conference foes 26-to-0. 

Junior defender Kyra Stafford (Albuquerque, N.M / Hope Christian)and first-year forward Hanna Khan (Southlake, Texas / Carroll) each tallied two goals on the night to lead the Tigers. Stafford struck first in the 11th minute of the match and the Trinity offense trickled in goals throughout the night. TU took 14 shots on the night while holding the Pirates to just two total shots. Sophomore keeper Lauryn Lewis (Carrollton, Texas / Creekview) picked up her eighth win of the season. 

The Rundown

Senior forward Molly Sheridan (St. Louis, Mo. / Kirkwood) took the first shot of the game but the SU keeper saved it. Just one minute later, sophomore Michaela Bosco (Weatherford, Texas / Weatherford) found Stafford for the first goal of the night. It was not until the 20th minute of the match that Southwestern took their first and only shot of the first half. 

Bosco found the back of the net in the 26th minute of the match to extend the Tiger lead to 2-0. Both the Tigers and Pirates struggled to get any offense going following the second goal of the match and the Tigers took a comfortable 2-0 lead into the half. 

Rejuvenated, Trinity immediately found themselves on the attack and took a corner but unfortunately came away empty. A few moments later, Southwestern earned a corner kick of their own but the Tigers defended it well. Both teams then traded a shot a piece but neither was on frame. 

With about 30 minutes left to play, Bosco found Stafford again to increase the Tiger lead to 3-0. First-year Erin Heath (Lake Jackson, Texas) shortly came onto the pitch as a reserve and immediately made an impact as she scored her second goal of the season to make the score 4-0 with just under 20 minutes to play. Khan later scored two unassisted goals to make the score 6-0 and put the match away as the time on the clock winded down.
