McPherson, KS – Lady Tigers currently sit in a 4 way tie for 5^th place in the SAC at (5-5, 1-2 SAC) before the start of today's match. A win could keep them in the 5^th spot, but a loss could drop them all the way down to 8^th place.

SCU 2-5 (0-3 SAC) would look to upset the Tigers and collect their 1^st SAC win to boost them closer to the middle of the pack.

In the 10' Megan Deshazo would open the game up with a score to give the Eagles a 1-0 lead. Followed a couple moments later with teammate Melo Baca finding the back on the net to increase the Eagle's lead to 2 scores.

Lady Tigers would try to respond multiple times but would come up just a bit too high or wide and couldn't complete the play. The Tigers early in the 2^nd half looked to cut into the Eagle lead, but unfortunately would be called offside negating the goal scored. Tigers would have 7 shots on goal, but SCU GK came up with 7 saves and a clean scorecard to complete the shutout.

Goldie Bougher would allow 3 goals on the performance and 5 saves, including some spectacular 1 v 1 saves to keep the Eagles at bay.

Tigers drop to 5-6, 1-3 SAC and will start to prepare for a scrimmage against Sterling and then senior night on March 13^th when they host Wayland Baptist University.
