Saints Fall on the Road Against Northwest Nazarene - Saint Martin's matched up against the Nighthawks in a tough defensive battle. A goal for Northwest Nazarene in the first half and an own goal by the Saints resulted in a 2-0 victory for NNU.

 

Ali Campigotto had five saves in the match and SMU recorded a total of eight shots in the match with four shots on goal.

 

Saints Fall 4-1 Against Central Washington - The Saints kept the match close in the first half, but gave up three unanswered goals in the second half to fall to Central Washington, 4-1.

 

Saint Martin’s recorded 13 shots in the match, with six landing on target. Rachel Kimura scored the lone goal of the match in the 17th minute. Ali Campigotto had two saves for the match on 16 shots faced.

 

First Career Shutout – In the Saints’ 2-0 victory over Western Oregon, goalie Soph Mendoza recorded their first career shutout on 11 shots faced, and two saves.

 

Deadly From PK – Kiersten Madsen continues to fool keepers and punching in goals. Since the start of the spring 2021 season, Madsen has recorded 7 goals, five coming from PKs, and she is a perfect 5-for-5 on PK attempts.

 

6 in a Row – To date, the Saints’ six straight goals (four against Evergreen State, and two against Western Oregon) was the longest consecutive goals scored by SMU. The streak was broken with a goal by Simon Fraser.

 

No Place Like Home – In 2021, all three of the Saints’ wins have come at home, for a 3-2-0 record at Saints Field. 

 

GNAC Leaders – Rebecca Garrison’s two assists are tied for ninth most. Ali Campigotto is tied for fourth with one shutout, and fourth in saves at 31, and fifth in save percentage at .705.

 

Breaking Records – In their win over Evergreen State, the Saints recorded a school record 34 shots.

 

Clean Sheet Preseason – In the Saints’ three preseason matches, Saint Martin’s outscored their opponents by nine, while allowing zero goals. Saint Martin’s put up five goals in their first match against Centralia College, followed by three against Bushnell, and one against Northwest.

 

2021 Season Preview - The Saints' women soccer program enters 2021 with an influx of new talent ready to prove the GNAC wrong after being selected eighth in the GNAC Coaches' Preseason Poll.

 

The Falcons of Seattle Pacific look poised to claim the GNAC title, earning six of the eight first place votes to lead the way with 62 points. Western Washington, who received the final two, finished second at 57 points.

 

Northwest Nazarene (44 points), Central Washington (37), and Western Oregon (30) made the middle of the standings. Simon Fraser and MSU Billings tied for sixth at 22 points, followed by the Saints at 14.

 

There will be little to no questions in 2021 where the Saints' strengths lie in 2019 second team All-Conference goalkeeper Ali Campigotto returning. The sophomore started all 11 games for the Saints in the COVID 2020-21 season, recording 63 saves, with one shutout victory, and a .685 save percentage.

 

Leading the offense for SMU will be senior Kiersten Madsen, who broke out in 2020 with five goals, and an assist. Madsen scored four goals in a three-game span, and three of her five goals came from penalty kicks. Another veteran who will provide leadership will be defender Daeh Lindquist, who enters the season with over 3,000 minutes of experience in the backline.

 

However, the Saints are loaded with young promising talent, that saw some action in 2020. Freshman Rachel Kimura, and Payton Aselton both started 10 matches, and combined for one goal and three assists. Sophomores Taylor Goodpaster and Justine Pauly each punched home one goal in 2020.

 

Other notable returners include Elisabeth Cole, who saw action in all 11 matches, along with Mia Fleming, and Maddie Wolff in the midfield.

 

The Saints welcome nine new student-athletes who will take the field for the first time in 2021.
