This Sunday the Denver Women’s Soccer team captured another victory in the Summit League over Omaha in a 3-1 blowout.

The Pios had points on the board within twelve minutes thanks to a cross whipped in from sophomore Alex Nillen (Lakewood, Colo.) which junior Hannah Adler (Oak Park, Calif.) snuck past the feet of Omaha defenders for sophomore Meg Halvorson (Englewood, Colo.) to tap in, bringing the score to 1-0.

In the 35th minute, however, Omaha put the pressure back on with a free kick from Cydney Skinner that bounced off the crossbar into the leg of Bailey Cascio who brought it to level at 1-1 for the half.

The Pioneers held strong, though, and in the 59th minute, freshman forward Samantha Feller (Grand Junction, Colo.) found the back of the net off a cross from freshman Natalie Beckman (Denver) that slipped through the hands of the Omaha keeper.

Then within less than two minutes, Beckman and Feller connected again for a header by Feller to push the score up 3-1, at which the Pioneers would sit comfortably with only a few minor scares for the rest of the match.

This brings Denver up to 2-0 in conference play, and they are set to embark on a three-match road-trip  beginning in Fargo on Thurs. Oct  4 at 6 p.m. MST
