The Lindenwood women’s soccer team wrapped up the home portion of their 2024 schedule with a 0-0 tie against the Little Rock Trojans.
The game itself was a very back and forth, cleanly played game. No yellow cards were given out during the match, and given the scoreless tie, neither team was able to find the back of the net at any given point. The Lindenwood defense kept Little Rock out of their goal zone, only allowing three shots on goal the entire match. Each of those shots were blocked by Lions’ goalie Caroline Ritter, who played all 90 minutes, and was perfect in the regard of blocked shots.
On the opposite side of the field, Lindenwood found themsleves with 10 shots on goal, which makes the scoreless tie even more impressive for Little Rock. Trojans goalie Peyton Urban was perfect in the net, blocking all 10 shots she saw come her way. Lindenwood was led by Anna Johnson, who had four shots on goal. Six other Lions’ each recorded one tally in that particular stat, including Lily Sutter, Rachel Jackson, Eyglo Thorsteindottir, Allison Schrumpf, Mackenzie Compton and Georgia Pardalos.
The tie now puts the team at 8-4- on the season, with a 4-0-4 record in conference play, and a 5-1-2 record at home at Hunter Stadium.
The Lions will finish their regular season with one more away game, as they are set to play Tennessee Tech in Cookeville on Sunday, Oct. 27 at 1 p.m. The game can be viewed on ESPN+, with a subscription. The team has also clinched a berth into the Ohio Valley Conference Tournament, which sees games begin on Oct. 31, and wrap up on Nov. 10.
