Women’s Soccer Scores Three in Victory Over CUC - Extends Undefeated and Shutout Streak

Chicago, Ill. - In a game that saw no goals until the final 15 minutes of action, the Illinois Tech Scarlet Hawks women's soccer team pulled away with a 3-0 victory over the Concordia University Chicago Cougars on September 27 at Stuart Field. The Hawks (8-1-1, 5-0) had no shortage of shots against the Cougars (2-7-1, 2-3-0), but struggled to find the back of the net until a penalty kick goal by Lucy Jorjorian in the 75th minute broke the scoreless streak. From there the Hawks found the back of the net two more times, extending their unbeaten streak to seven. The Hawks also extended their shutout streak to seven with a combined shutout between Sarah Thomas and Hailey Flannagan.

How it Happened

  • The first goal of the contest wouldn't come until the 75th minute when Lucy Jorjorian scored off a penalty kick. An unfortunate hand ball in the box on the Cougars awarded the PK in which the Hawks were able to capitalize on. 

  • After the first goal, the gates opened for the Hawks. The second goal of the contest came four minutes later in the 79th minute off the foot of Kaitlyn Walsh. Gabrielle West assisted the play when she sent an airborne cross into the center of the box, right on top of the 6-yard box. The ball would then bounce right into the path of of Walsh who was able to get her right foot on the ball and send it underneath the diving Cougar goalkeeper and into the back of the net. 

  • For the third and final goal of the contest, Wiktoria Ucher found the back of the net off a Sophia Arntz assist. The 89th minute goal came as Arntz received the ball and took off dribbling inside the box. With three different defenders crashing in on her, Arntz was able to find space to fire off a pass across the front of the goal to where Ucher was able to deflect the ball into the goal, giving the Hawks the 3-0 lead.
