University of Southern Indiana women’s soccer sophomore forward Katlyn Andres (Louisville, Kentucky) scored with 10 minutes to play to provide the Screaming Eagles a 1-0 victory over Southwest Baptist University Friday afternoon in Bolivar, Missouri. The Eagles go to 6-2-0 overall and are 4-2-0 GLVC, while Southwest Baptist University is 3-4-1 overall, 2-4-0 GLVC.

Andres picked up her fourth tally of the season on a breakaway after the Eagles cleared the ball out of the defensive end following a Bearcat corner kick. The goal, scored at the 79:18 mark, was Andres’ fourth of year, tying her for the team lead with junior forward Maggie Winter (St. Louis, Missouri).

Between the posts, freshman goalkeeper Maya Etienne (Midland, Michigan) was masterful once again in posting her sixth win and fifth shutout of the season. Etienne made five saves in the shutout, facing a total of 10 shots.

The Eagles reach the halfway mark of the four-match road swing Sunday at noon when they visit the Panthers of Drury University in Springfield, Missouri. Drury, who is 1-6-1 overall and 1-4-0 in the conference, are slated to host McKendree University this evening in Springfield.

Drury holds an 8-6-0 advantage in the all-time series, but USI has won the last three matches, including the last two at Strassweg Field, 5-0 in 2017 and 3-1 in 2018.
