Soccer was dismantled twice on the road as Central Washington took a 1-4 advantage and Simon Fraser won 0-6. The two game journey north saw first-year midfielder Kaili Brundage score the first goal of her Western career, while first-year keeper Caitlin Kastelic saved a combined 26 shots.

The Wolves were completely swarmed in their visit to CWU, having only three shots on goal and giving up a penalty that lead to CWU’s first goal.

Playing Simon Fraser in Canada found some more space for the Wolves, who pressured the keeper with four shots on goal in the first nine minutes of the second half. By that time, Western was already trailing 0-4. The Wolves were left unable to find the back of the net and unable to close the gap. Despite allowing 6 goals, Kastelic turned in the most noteworthy performance as she made 19 saves.

The Wolves close out their long road trip this week, against St. Martin’s.

Saturday, Oct. 9, Central Washington comes to Monmouth. Wolves soccer is currently undefeated at home. The match kicks off at noon.
