Shutout victories set winning tone

The UNM women’s soccer team started off the 2010 season in fine fashion. After demolishing Montana 7-0 on Friday, the Lobos continued with a convincing 3-0 win against Nebraska on Sunday at the UNM Soccer Complex. “These past two games — we have been very good at putting away our chances against some good teams,” head coach Kit Vela said. The Lobos followed up their Friday shutout victory Sunday against Nebraska with good composure in front of the goal. The first half against Nebraska was evenly matched, with both teams feeling each other out, until forward Stephanie Rowe chipped the keeper from 20 yards in the 39th minute. Midfielder Rachel Fields gave the Lobos some insurance in the 64th minute by scoring from inside the box, before Jennifer Williams scored the third goal of the game.

The Lobos have seven freshmen on the roster: Mariah Agre, Chantale Riddle, Lexi Ross, Juliane Hanna, Carli Torr, Ashley Newman and Miquella Lovato.
