TACOMA, Wash. -- The Lewis & Clark Pioneers (7-4-1, 5-3-0) hit the road for Sunday's matchup against the Puget Sound Loggers (11-0-1, 7-0-1) at Baker Stadium, losing 3-0 to the conference leader.

Kylee Roath got the scoring going when she found the back of the net in the 17th minute of play, heading the ball into the goal off a pass from Misha Tasaka. The Pioneers found more offensive momentum in the second half, taking five shots to the Loggers three, but couldn't get past goalies Chaylea Tome and Megan Schellhase to even the score.

Grace Billings led scoring efforts for the Pioneers with two shots, while Sophia Young tended goal for the full 90 minutes. She made seven saves.
