#4 Loggers Wrap Up Regular Season With 1-0 Win

TACOMA, Wash. - One day after clinching their eighth-straight Northwest Conference title, the fourth-ranked Puget Sound Loggers wrapped up the 2009 regular season with a 1-0 win over the Linfield Wildcats in a Northwest Conference women's soccer match on Saturday on East Athletic Field.

The Loggers (18-1-0, 15-1-0 NWC) dominated the match offensively in the first half, outshooting the Wildcats 10-2 but Linfield posted four saves to keep the match in a scoreless tie.  In the second half, the Loggers finally got on the scoreboard in the 56th minute when Mikaela Freeman (Alameda, Calif./Bishop O'Dowd) was given a penalty kick opportunity and successfully completed the attempt.

Senior Sarah Krabacher (Sandpoint, Idaho) made her first collegiate start, collecting an easy shutout as neither of the Linfield shots made it on frame.

The Loggers will now wait until Monday morning for the official release of the 2009 NCAA Division III Women's Soccer Championship bracket.  The 63-team field is expected to be released at 7:00 a.m. PST on NCAA.com.

"Our playoff game game against Whitworth my freshman year is my best memory as a Logger. The stands were packed and I had never played in such a fun and rewarding game or environment."
