KU shuts out Furman

By Staff     Sep 10, 2004

? The 21st-ranked Kansas University soccer team opened play in the Furman Tournament on Thursday night with a 3-0 victory against Furman at Stone Soccer Stadium.

The Jayhawks scored three goals during a 12-minute spurt in the first half and Furman (1-4) never recovered.

Senior midfielder Amy Geha started the KU offense in the 15th minute when she scored after junior forward Caroline Smith’s shot ricocheted off FU goalie Andie Hinshaw. Smith scored nine minutes later off an assist from sophomore midfielder Nicole Cauzillo, and Cauzillo chipped in KU’s final goal in the 26th minute off a pass from sophomore forward Jessica Kilpatrick.

Kansas (5-0) hasn’t allowed a goal all season as senior goalkeeper Meghan Miller logged her school-record fifth straight shutout.

The Jayhawks play No. 7 Clemson at 11 a.m. Saturday for the tournament title.

KU shuts out BYU

? Kansas University sophomore defender Holly Gault’s goal 29:51 in helped the No. 17-ranked KU soccer team squeak past Brigham Young University, 1-0, on Monday afternoon at South Stadium Field.

The victory concluded a rare Saturday-Monday roadtrip, which the Jayhawks were forced to play because BYU does not play on Sundays. KU defeated UNLV, 2-0, Saturday night in Las Vegas.

Gault’s goal, which came off a pass from sophomore midfielder Nicole Cauzillo, was the only break either team had in a tough defensive contest. The Jayhawks (2-0) placed just five of their 10 shots on goal, but held the Cougars to three.

KU senior goalkeeper Meghan Miller recorded her 21st career shutout and second of the season.

The Jayhawks return to action at 5 p.m. Friday against Wisconsin-Milwaukee in the KU Invitational Tournament at the Jayhawk Soccer Complex. St. Louis and Mississippi State will play the earlier match at 2:30 p.m.
