Box Score

ST. LOUIS, MO. – Southern Indiana scored the game’s lone goal in the 26th minute to earn a 1-0 victory over the University of Missouri-St. Louis women’s soccer team Friday night in Great Lakes Valley Conference action.

The Screaming Eagles’ Jessica Gates took a free kick 30 yards out on the left side and scored as the ball crept through the legs of Tritons keeper Hanna Sayre in a mud-filled box for the victory.
