WHEATON, Ill. - The 11th-ranked Puget Sound Loggers were able to
do what only one other team has been able to do in the past two
seasons, defeating the second-ranked Wheaton Thunder on their home
field with a 1-0 victory on Saturday evening at Joe Bean Stadium in
Wheaton, Ill.
After heading into halftime scoreless, the Loggers made it 1-0
in the 59th minute as senior Janece Levien (Beaverton, Ore.) broke
away from the Wheaton defense to beat the Thunder keeper for her
second goal of the season.
Senior keeper Kallie Wolfer (Salt Lake City, Utah/Skyline) had
an outstanding match, making four saves to survive the Wheaton
offensive attack. The win was the first by an opposing team
at Joe Bean stadium since Oct. 25, 2008 when Illinois Wesleyan
defeated then-15th ranked Wheaton, 2-1.
The Loggers return to Tacoma to make their 2009 home debut on
Saturday afternoon against Pomona-Pitzer. That game is set
for Noon on East Athletic Field.
