Titans Shut Out Previously Once-Beaten Falcons

Rachel Elliott scored for the third consecutive match as the UW-Oshkosh women's soccer team defeated previously once-beaten Concordia University Wisconsin, 2-0, on Sunday (Oct. 25) at J. J. Keller Field at Titan Stadium.

Elliott, who tallied one goal against the University of Dubuque (Iowa) on Oct. 20 and two against UW-Eau Claire on Oct. 24, closed UW-Oshkosh's scoring against Concordia University Wisconsin with a 35-yard kick during the 66th minute (65:51) of play. Elliott's fourth goal of the season followed a pass from Megan Paulick.

After a scoreless first half, Rylee Engelland's first career goal put UW-Oshkosh ahead during the game's 51st minute (50:39). Engelland headed a 5-yard shot into the net after collecting a corner kick from Heidi Hetzel.

UW-Oshkosh goalkeeper Nina Muzi saved five shots to record her fifth shutout of the season. She blocked two Concordia University Wisconsin shots in the first half and three in the second.

Concordia University Wisconsin goalkeeper Ariana Worthing saved two shots while allowing both UW-Oshkosh scores.

UW-Oshkosh (12-3-1), which has gone 10-1-1 in its last 12 matches, attempted 16 shots. Elliott led the Titans with five shots, while Engelland and Paulick tallied three apiece. Elliott also had two of the team's four shots on goal.

Concordia University Wisconsin (13-2-2), which had its 11-game winning streak snapped, launched 12 shots. The Falcons were led by the four shots from Emily Ciesielczyk and the two each from Ashley Johnson, Carley Pfannerstill and Kayla Schlosser. Ciesielczyk also owned three of the squad's five shots on goal.

Sunday's match was the 15th between the teams. The Titans' latest win increased their record in the series to 12-2-1.

UW-Oshkosh resumes activity with Wednesday's (Oct. 28) match at J. J. Keller Field at Titan Stadium against five-time defending WIAC champion UW-Whitewater.
