WACO, Texas -
The Baylor Bears claimed their second victory of
the weekend and handed TCU their first loss of the
season with a 2-0 shutout.
Baylor improves to 3-1 on the season, while the
Horned Frogs fall to 3-1.
Senior forward Courtney Saunders scored in the
ninth minute of play off a ball from freshman
defender Tamura Crawley. That would be it for
first half action as the Bears took a 1-0 lead
into half.
Two sophomore forwards added Baylor's final goals.
Alyson Miles nudged a ball right in front of the
goal where Megan Townes put it in for the score.
The Baylor defense held TCU to eight shots on goal
with junior goalkeeper Dawn Greathouse making four
saves.
"Overall I don't think we played as well as we are
capable of. But, a sign of a good team is one that
can not play well and still come out with a
victory," head coach Nick Cowell said.
In the tournament's first game of the day, the
University of San Diego defeated LSU 7-0. The
Toreros moved to 2-1 on the season while the
Tigers fell to 1-3.
Next up for the Bears will be the Fila Tournament
in College Park, Md. Friday, Baylor will play
Maryland at 6 p.m. and Pittsburgh Sunday at 11
a.m.
