DALLAS — It took the No. 3 team in the nation to keep the St. Mary's University Women's Soccer team off the scoreboard for the first time this season, as DBU defeated the Rattlers 3-0 at Patriot Soccer Field on Saturday afternoon.
The Rattlers (5-2-1, 3-1-0) put both of their shots on goal as freshmen
Kamrynn Martinez (Dallas) and
Eva Valeriano (Austin, Texas) each put one on frame in the first half, but the Patriots' (7-0, 4-0) defense did not allow another shot the remainder of the game.
DBU scored in the 5th, 16th and 65th minutes for the 3-0 victory, as they took 23 shots in the contest and 11 were on target. Sophomore
Molly Lyons (Galveston, Texas) made five saves and surrendered three, while freshman
