The Silverswords are 2-4 overall after also earning a victory over Cal State Dominguez Hills. Caitlin Tatemichi scored all four goals for Chaminade against HNU which is the most from any player in a conference match for the last seven years. Tatemichi was named this week's PacWest women's soccer player of the week for her performance and she leads the team with five goals this season.
SHARKS EVEN TO BEGIN CONFERENCE
Already five matches into PacWest-play, Hawaii Pacific is 2-2-1, posting wins against Dixie State and UH Hilo. Their last match was their first at home since September 8 and they tied Holy Names 0-0 after going the distance of two overtimes. HPU's overall record stands at 5-3-1 which is the best out of all three Hawaiian PacWest schools. Ebony Madrid leads the Sharks with five goals, the third-highest mark in the conference.
PREVIOUS MATCH: ART U FALLS TO HILO IN FIRST HAWAIIAN MATCH
Sept. 30 - Academy of Art women's soccer dropped the first match of their three-Hawaiian contests, falling to UH Hilo by a score of 0-4.
It did not take long for the Vulcans to get on the board as they scored twice within the first 12 minutes. The first goal took place in the sixth-frame with the second following in the 12th. The Urban Knights responded with a shot in the 25th-minute from senior midfielder
Abigail Chavez, but the attempt was saved by Hilo's goalkeeper…
LOOKING AHEAD
After Thursday's match against Hawaii Pacific, the Urban Knights will return to San Francisco for a pair of home games against Dixie State and Concordia.
