NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Hannah McLaughlin led Vanderbilt soccer to its third shutout of the season Thursday night by defeating Kansas State 1-0 at the Vanderbilt Soccer Complex.
The Commodores outshot the Wildcats 10-7, tallying five shots in each period. Senior keeper Kate Devine was instrumental in the win, gathering a season-high five saves in the match.
The lone goal of the evening came after Kansas State’s Maddie Weichel was issued a yellow card in the box resulting in a penalty shot. McLaughlin stepped up and connected to put the Dores in front in the 66th minute.
Tonight’s win brings Vanderbilt to 3-0-2. The Dores are unbeaten through their first five matches for the second consecutive season and third overall in the Darren Ambrose era.
