MILWAUKEE, Wis. -- The Drake women's soccer team ran past Parkside in a 4-0 shutout victory at Uihlein Soccer Park on Friday, Aug. 18. 

"It's great to start the season with a shutout win," head coach Lindsey Horner said. "Today was another opportunity to continue to get on the same page in the final third. We left a few good chances on the table but I'm pleased to be able to have so many people play. We are looking forward to what will be a tough matchup on Sunday."

North Dakota transfer Hannah Olson converted the first goal of the season when she knocked the ball into the lower left of the net during the eighth minute.

Drake continued to control the tempo in the second half. Newcomers Angela Gutierrez and Maria Cervello teamed up for a goal from Avery Mertz in the 85th minute to cap off the dominant effort. 

Addie Ford (73 minutes in net) and Kelti Wise (17 minutes in net) teamed up for the shutout.
