Lady Miners blanked by Saginaw Valley State
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. -- A trip outside the Great Lakes Valley Conference didn't change the Lady Miners' luck, as Saginaw Valley State handed UMR a 3-0 loss Saturday afternoon.
The Cardinals scored 33 seconds into the game to take a lead that it would carry into halftime, then got goals early and late in the second half to get the victory.
Saginaw Valley's Stephanie Roy scored the first goal, then Tammie Edmunds got a goal on a breakaway a little over 10 minutes into the second half to extend the lead. Kim Oberski's goal on a head ball with just under three minutes left wrapped up the scoring.
The Lady Miners were outshot 21-11 in the game but had nine shots on goal. Catherine Swift started the game in goal for UMR and was credited with five saves, while Kelsey Kurilla had one save in her 35 minutes of action. UMR also had three corner kick chances in the contest.
UMR (3-7-1) will return to action Friday when it faces Quincy in a 5 p.m. game in Quincy, Ill.
