Monumental Win For Visiting Gonzaga Sunday

Nov. 2, 2003

Box Score

San Diego, CA- Despite holding Gonzaga to just a pair of shots on the afternoon, the visiting Bulldogs were able to upset host San Diego 1-0 Sunday afternoon at USD's Torero Stadium. The win over San Diego was the first in Gonzaga's program history, in a series that spans eleven matches and as many seasons. San Diego's overall record slipped to 9-7-3, with its WCC mark moving to 2-4.

Gonzaga (11-7; 3-3 WCC) scored at the 37 minute mark in when forward Annie Hawkins stole the ball from Torero defender Kaitlyn Pruett and scored from point blank range in front of the Torero net. The opportunity was one of the only chances the San Diego defense allowed all afternoon but proved to be the decisive score.

San Diego rattled off a total of nine shots, four in the second half. Bulldog goalkeeper Ashley Haugen saved three and was credited with the shutout. The match signified the final home appearance for six Torero seniors, including past all-conference award winners Cristina Romero, Alexis Obeji, Brenna Mullen and Katie Allen.
