Kamloops, BC – A pair of goals in the second half sent the Thompson Rivers WolfPack women's soccer team to a 2-0 victory over the UFV Cascades inside Hillside Stadium Friday night.

The loss sees the Casacdes move to 2-3 on the season, while the WolfPack improve to 3-2.

How it Happened:
UFV almost opened the scoring 20 minutes into the game. Eesha Mudaliar fed a ball to Langston and the third-year forward was able to turn and unleash a blast towards net only for Floor Ursem to come up big with a diving stop.

TRU's best chance to score in the first half came in the 31st minute when Esi Lufo found Mackenzie Lalonde all alone in the 18-yard box, but the rookie from Ottawa wasn't able to direct her effort past a sprawling Addy Chen.

The first marker came less than ten minutes into the second frame. Alexis Virgo sent a long ball into the box from a free-kick, Chen came to claim it but the ball fell near Kat Stewart who - with her back to the goal - managed to score from a acrobatic effort that was fired over her left shoulder and into the net.

That lead was doubled just three minutes later when a TRU corner kick bounced around the Cascades' penalty area before carroming out to a waiting Stewart on the edge of the UFV 18-yard box. The third-year TRU forward sent a rocket towards goal that Lalonde swept past a helpless Chen.

UFV did their best to claw their way back into the match but relentless WolfPack pressure limited the Cascades to just one shot towards goal down the stretch.

Notable:
Addy Chen made two saves for Fraser Valley while Kiana Langston was a threatening presence throughout the match.

Next Up:
UFV will remain on the road for a game against the UBCO Heat in Kelowna tomorrow at 5:30pm. The game can also be seen live on Canada West TV.
