Box Score

MORAGA, Calif. -- Following their upset victory over defending champion Santa Clara, the USF Dons women's soccer team (4-4-2) lost their conference opener on the road to Saint Mary's (7-1-2) 2-0 at Saint Mary's Stadium. The Dons offense struggled to get anything going against a staunch Gaels' defense who've been tough to score on all season.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT:

The first half was a defensive battle with each team holding the other off the scoreboard.
69 minutes into the match, the Gaels finally broke through on a goal from Annamaria DiGeronimo.
Saint Mary's tacked on another goal six minutes later courtesy of Emily Jensen.

NOTABLE PERFORMANCES:

Goalkeeper Molly Eby had an active game in goal as she recorded seven saves on Saturday afternoon.
Jensen had an impactful night for the Gaels as she scored their second goal of the night and assisted on the first from DiGeronimo.

UP NEXT:
The Dons now return home to Negoesco Stadium for their first conference home match against Loyola Marymount. The Lions enter the match with an 0-10 record.
