Scoring twice in the first 20-minuites of action, the University of Evansville women’s soccer team earns a, 2-0, victory over Tennessee Tech, Friday night.
In minute 13, the Purple Aces got a solid attacking offensive play started with back-to-back shots by Emily Ormson and Maggie Leazer. On her second attempt in the sequence Leazer would find the back of the net, for the first time this season.
Emily Wolak would follow that up with her second goal of the year, that would end up putting the match out of reach for Tennessee Tech. Wolak came down the middle of the field, off a serve from Ormson, slipped the ball past the Golden Eagles defenders.
The two goals would be all the Aces would need to earn the shutout, bolstered by eight saves by Michaela Till in goal. Till’s 40 saves this season puts her just nine away from fifth place all time on the UE career saves list.
The Aces will close out its three game road trip in the state of Tennessee on Sunday as they take on Austin Peay.
