Washington 5, Seattle U 0
SEATTLE, Wash.--(SU Media Relations) Seattle University women’s soccer faced crosstown foe Washington (3-4-0) in their second to final non-conference match, falling 5-0 at Husky Soccer Stadium.
“First and foremost, I want to give a lot of credit to the University of Washington,” said head coach Julie Woodward. “They had previously only won a couple games and you could tell they were hungry and they finished well. Interestingly enough, I thought there were 20 minutes or so in the first half where we had some of the best attacking sequences I’ve seen. But we were playing a very experienced team, and we need to play all 90 minutes. Heading into the conference schedule, we need to take what we learned here, find the things we need to improve on, and do them.”
