St. Olaf College 3, UW-Stout 1
NORTHFIELD, Minn (September 5, 2019) - St. Olaf scored three consecutive goals in a five minute stretch in the final 15 minutes of the game to hand UW-Stout a 3-1 loss Thursday.
After a scoreless first half, the Blue Devils (1-2) found the back of the net first when
Ariel Kuchta (So, Green Bay) ran onto a pass by
Whitley Carothers (Fr, Hayward) and Stout led in the 65th minute.
St. Olaf (2-1) tied the game in the 75th minute on a shot by Rose Sandell from the top of the box. The score opened the floodgates as the Oles scored three times in less than five minutes. Hayley Hoffman scored in the 78th minute and Mackenzie Schoustra capped off the scoring in the 80th minute.
The Oles had a distinct advantage in shots, going 41-4 overall and 27-1 on net. With the exception of the five minute Ole spurt, Stout goalie
Claudia Anderson (So, North Branch) had an exceptional, but busy, day in the net for the Blue Devils, stopping 24 shots, only three short of the school record held by Jessie Sutherland against St. Thomas in 1999.
Stout will be at Bethel University, Saturday, Sept. 7 for a 2 p.m. contest, and then will be at Hamline University Wednesday, Sept. 11.
