Northwestern had six shots in the match, two of which came from freshman midfielder Georgia Waddle (Lake Forest, Ill./Lake Forest). Four other Wildcats had one shot each including freshman Sami Schrakamp (Danville, Calif./Monte Vista), senior Caroline Dagley (San Rafael, Calif./The Branson School), senior Sarah Sroka (Geneva, Ill./Geneva) and senior Emily Langston (Los Altos, Calif./Los Altos). Penn State had the 18-6 advantage on shots and an 8-1 advantage in shots on goal.
“Tonight we beat ourselves,” Northwestern head coach Stephanie Foster said. “We have to regroup and refocus for another opportunity on Sunday. Penn State is a great team and they completely outmatched us tonight. We will put Northwestern Soccer on the field on Sunday.”
