WS: Munson sisters fuel Cardinals' 1-0 win

MENOMONIE, Wis. — Playing a game decided by shutout is nothing new to the Saint Mary's University women's soccer team.

In fact, the Cardinals had played in six such contests heading into Sunday's nonconference game at UW-Stout.

Make that seven.

And thanks to the Munson twins, the Cardinals came out on the winning end of that shutout decision.

McKenzie Munson (Plain City, Utah) stopped both shots she faced and sister Samantha Munson (Plain City, Utah) scored midway through the first half in leading the Cardinals to a 1-0 nonconference win over the Blue Devils.

Samantha Munson gave the Cardinals all the offense they would need, scoring her this goal of the season in the 29th minute. And from there, the SMU defense — led by McKenzie Munson — did the rest, limiting UW-Stout to just two shots on goal.

McKenzie Munson, making her second collegiate start in goal, stopped both UW-Stout shots en route to her second collegiate shutout, while Blue Devils' goalkeeper Kristen Silenzi stopped eight of SMU's nine shots on goal.

The Cardinals (4-4-0 overall) return to conference play on Wednesday, when they travel to St. Peter, Minn., for a 4 p.m. MIAC showdown against Gustavus.
