| 10.10.08 - First
year coach, Ryan Burgher, notched his first Mid-Central Conference
win with a 1-0 victory over Bethel College.
"It feels really great to get our first
conference win," said Coach Burgher. "Bethel is a good team,
but we played very well."
After playing to a scoreless tie in
the first half, HU broke through and put one past the Pilot keeper
off a corner kick. After several consecutive failed attempts,
Brittany Carlson sent one more in from the corner and this time
Bethany McGraw connected with a header into the back of the net to
give HU the 1-0 lead at the 50:46 mark.
The Forester defense then finished
the job securing the shutout and the win. HU keeper Emily
Walker tallied 11 saves on the day as the Pilots out-shot HU 24-6.
The win moves the Foresters to 6-5-1 on the season and
1-2 in the MCC. |
