PORTLAND, Ore. – In a battle of two of the nation's remaining unbeaten women's soccer programs, Portland's lone goal determined the outcome to hand LMU the team's first loss nine games into the 2022 season.
The Lions took the game's first two shots within the first nine minutes of action. In the 19
th minute, Portland's Cally Togiai found the back of the net to give the Pilots the early lead.
LMU would draw a foul and add one more shot before the half ended.
Alice Santen put the free kick on target and forced the home keeper to make a save.
The Portland offense kept
Amanda Delgado busy in the second half. The LMU goalkeeper saw eight shots after halftime but did not allow anything else past her. Delgado finished with four saves in the game.
The scoreline remained the same as LMU's eight-game unbeaten streak to open the year came to an end in the West Coast Conference opener.
The Lions will return to Sullivan Field on Oct. 5 to face Santa Clara in another WCC battle.
