Milwaukee v. Northwestern Match Report

Milwaukee 2, Northwestern 1 (Exhibition)
Aug. 8, 2011 – Lakeside Field (Evanston, Ill.)



Woman of the Match

Morgan LaPlant - She scored the game’s first goal and nearly added a second in the second half. One of four starting freshmen, she was impressive in her first collegiate action.

Beyond the Box Score

- There were no stats kept… Sorry… I’m bummed about it, too.

Notes

- Four freshman started: LaPlant, Amy Kauffung, Kelsey Holbert and Emily Scott. Five more freshmen debuted off the bench.

- Kauffung played with the Panthers during the spring season.

- Counting the 2010 regular season, six games with the U.S. U23 Women’s National Team and today, Sarah Hagen has scored in 10-straight games. We could include the spring and her WPSL season, but the streak would not exist and what fun is that?

STARTERS: Jamie Forbes (GK), Mary Wandolowski, Kauffung, Hobart, Makenzie Gillaspie, Hagen, Scott, Keara Thompson, Hannah Kaul, Laurel Ragalie, LaPlant.

RESERVES: Sara Stern, Helen Steinhauser, Melanie Coderre, Vienna Behnke, Natalie Fettinger (GK), Kelly Lewers, Stephanie Condon, Emma Worthington, Lauren Jimenez.

Next Up

Two exhibition games this weekend, Saturday against a team of Panther alumni and Sunday against Northern Illinois. Both games will be played at Engelmann Stadium.
