MENOMONIE (October 10, 2012) - While UW-Stout outshot Gustavus Adolphus College in the first half, it certainly didn't feel like. The Blue Devils came to life in the second half to defeat the Gusties, 2-1, Wednesday at Nelson Field.
The Blue Devils (5-6-2) outshot the Gusties (5-7-0), 6-3, in the first half but Gustavus carried the half on a goal by Brittany Chase in the 37th minute.
A lively halftime talk seemed to inspire the Stout players, who immediately came out attacking. After a number of repeated attempts, Stout broke onto the scoreboard when
Jenna Kizlik (Fr, Hammond) took a pass from
Alix Hyduke (Jr, Duluth, Minn) in the 59th minute.
Stout got the eventual game-winner in the 69th minute when
Chelsea Schmidt (Fr, St. Paul, Minn) scored her first collegiate goal with assists by
Jenna Schlueter (Sr, Littleton, Colo) and
Jamie Whitlinger (Fr, Duluth, Minn).
Stout outshot Gustavus 10-2 in the second half and 16-5 for the game. The Blue Devils put 12 shots on net compared to four by Gustavus.
Paige Meyer (Fr, Beldenville) had three saves for Stout and Jessica Richert had 10 for the Gusties.
Stout will be at UW-Stevens Point, Saturday, Oct. 13, then will return home Tuesday, Oct. 16 to host Hamline University.
