Green Bay Earns 1-0 Shutout Win at UIC

By: Joey Daniels (@GBJoeyD)

GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – Controlling the match throughout the entire 90 minutes, the Green Bay women's soccer team picked up a 1-0 shutout victory on the road over UIC on Wednesday night. The Phoenix improves its record to 9-5-2 overall and 3-3-0 in the Horizon League, snapping a two-game losing skid in the process.

Green Bay controlled possession and momentum from start to finish before totaling 15 shots on goal and a few others that hit the goalpost. The Phoenix outshot UIC (2-14-0, 0-6-0 HL) 15-2 and took seven corner kicks to the Flames' one.

The lone goal of the game came in the 10th minute, when centerback Sydney Born (Edina, Minn.) put home her first goal of the season after she found the ball at her feet following the corner kick from Chandra Eigenberger (Green Bay, Wis.). Eigenberger was credited with the assist on the goal and it would be the only score the Phoenix would need to move its record to .500 in league play.

For the second straight game the Phoenix registered 15 shots on goal, which ties its season high. In the last two games alone, Green Bay has put 30 shots on goal, a number that ties the entire total from the previous five games combined before Detroit and UIC.

With two home games to close out the regular season, Green Bay will hold its Senior Day in its next match against Youngstown State. The two teams will square off this Saturday (Oct. 25) at 1 p.m., with the nine Green Bay seniors being honored before the game.
