NEWBERG, Ore. - Senior Fiona Gornick (Portland, Ore./Grant) scored the only goal that it took for the 13th-ranked Puget Sound Loggers to pick up a 1-0 win over the George Fox Bruins in a Northwest Conference women's soccer game on Sunday afternoon in Newberg, Ore.

The first half was a defensive struggle as the Loggers had eight shots, two on goal, while the Bruins managed six shots, four on goal.  Puget Sound capitalized on one of their opportunities when Ryne Olson (Durango, Colo.) raced down the right sideline with the ball, then crossed to Gornick near the right corner of the penalty box, and she angled a shot into the far corner of the net when Bruin keeper Sally Page stepped out to challenge the shot.

The Loggers controlled play for the most part in the second half, taking 14 shots to four for the Bruins (six on goal to two), and had nine corner kicks to none for GFU in the period, but neither team could punch home another goal.  Page finished with six saves for George Fox, while Kallie Wolfer (Salt Lake City, Utah/Skyline) made six saves for Puget Sound in recording the shutout.  

The Loggers head across the mountains next weekend for a pair of big games at Whitworth and Whitman.
