BELLINGHAM, Wash-  Western Washington scored twice in the second half to defeat Sonoma State 2-0 in non-conference women's soccer action in Bellingham, Washington on Saturday.  The Seawolves fall to 1-3-0 with their third consecutive loss, all to opponents from the state of Washington.  The Vikings, an NCAA Regional qualifier last year, improve to 3-0-0.

Despite dominating play in the first half and holding a 9-3 advantage in corner kicks, the Seawolves were unable to find the back of the net.  It has become a disturbing trend for a team that has not scored in three games since a 2-0 defeat of Grand Canyon in the season opener.

The Seawolves out shot the Vikings 12-10, but WWU goalkeeper Teresa Fish made five saves to record her school-record 23rd shutout. 

Western broke the scoreless tie in the 47th minute when a corner kick was headed by Kelly Gagne to Kasey Hostetler and then into the goal.

In the 69th minute the Vikings' Bryn Gibson broke loose on a partial breakaway and found the lower right-hand corner from 18 yards out. 

The Seawolves open up CCAA play next week at Cal State L.A.

Box Score will be posted soon.
