UW-La Crosse kept its perfect season going Saturday afternoon, beating UW-Stout 3-0 at Veterans Memorial Field Sports Complex in La Crosse.
All three goals came before halftime. Aubree Caya opened the scoring at 19:48 off an assist from Kate Heiderscheit, Katelyn Studebaker made it 2-0 at 37:39 with Grace Williams assisting, and Morgan Fitt added the third at 41:59 on a pass from Gianna Zamborini.
The Eagles controlled the match with 34 shots, 14 of them on goal, and all 10 corner kicks in the game. Goalkeeper Summer Nicolai made three saves for UWL's 11th shutout of the season, while UW-Stout goalkeeper Kristen Silenzi finished with 11 saves.
The win was UWL's 15th in a row, a new school record that passes 14-game streaks from 2018 and 2012. It also pushed the Eagles' unbeaten run in WIAC play to 32 matches, and left them ranked 15th in the national coaches poll noted by the university.
UW-Stout fell to 4-8-4 overall and 0-4 in the WIAC. UWL, now 15-0 overall and 4-0 in conference play, plays next at UW-Platteville on Wednesday, Oct. 21 at 7 p.m.
