MILWAUKEE, Wis. - The University of Cincinnati women's soccer team fell for the fifth-straight time, dropping a 5-0 decision at Marquette on Friday night.
The Bearcats fell to 2-9-0 overall and 0-4-0 in Conference USA after being outshot 20-3 by the Golden Eagles (6-5-1, 2-1-1). It was the fourth time in those five losses that UC was shutout.
Marquette set the tone early as Kristie Matola found Meghan Connelly just 49 seconds into the game for the first goal. The scoring continued for Marquette as Connelly and Matola found Julie Thompson at 19:02 to give Marquette a 2-0 advantage.
Just six minutes later Alison Loughrin received a ball on the right wing and was followed closely by a Cincinnati defender who fouled Loughrin inside the penalty area setting up a penalty kick. Heather Goranson's shot caught the upper right corner of the net for the goal.
At 74:04 Claire Weber served the ball into the box and found Michelle Pitzl who got her head on the ball and found the goal. The final goal came from Maureen Kole at 85:31 on a shot from five yards out. Erin Jamieson was credited with the assist.
UC freshman keeper Jennifer Doerflein made four saves while playing the entire match.
The Bearcats remain on the road to face DePaul in Chicago on Sunday, Oct. 10 at 1 p.m. CT.
