The UNI women's soccer team was overwhelmed by the Ramblers in their 0-3 loss on Saturday afternoon at Loyola Soccer Park. The Panthers weren't able to get a shot on goal during the game and only attempted 3 shots through 90 minutes against Loyola. Whereas the Ramblers had 17 shots and 7 shots on goal, spending most of the game in the offensive zone.

Loyola would put their first goal on the board in the 17th minute when midfielder Megan Nemec took a shot from the right side of the box that made it past goalkeeper Caitlin Richards. It was Nemec's 5th goal of the season, tying her with Panthers forward Lauren Heinsch for 1st in the Missouri Valley Conference.

The second goal came in the 38th minute off a long cross from defender Megan Demski that was tipped in the right corner of the goal by Olivia Knab for her first goal of the season. The last goal of the game would come in the 2nd half when Nemec drew out Richards, leaving an open net for Taylor Harrison to get her first goal of the season in the 57th minute.

It was an offensively quiet night for the Panthers as only Lauren Heinsch and Maddie Celarek registered shots in the game. No shots from UNI players were able to make it on goal to Ramblers goalkeeper Maddie Hausmann. Panthers goalkeeper Caitlin Richards made 4 saves through 90 minutes while allowing 3 goals. And as a team the Panthers had 3 shots, 2 fouls, and 3 corner kicks.
