COACH'S QUOTE
"We had an opportunity today to be challenged by a top ranked opponent, and I think we can take a lot from this experience," said Head Coach Kate Pfeifer. "I look forward to seeing how we move forward and compete tomorrow."

HOW IT HAPPENED
  • Iowa got the scoring started early when Dionne van Aalsum scored a penalty corner off the assists from Annika Herbine and Lieve Schalk.
  • Iowa grabbed a second near the end of the second quarter when Schalk finally scored after Lauren Halenkamp produced a double save to keep the Hawkeyes at bay.
  • Sophie Stribos scored two and a half minutes into the third when she found enough space to put a shot past Halenkamp off the assist from Van Aalsum.
  • Van Aalsum added a second a minute later when she finished off a solo run into the bottom corner.
  • Van Aalsum finished her hat-trick with less than two minutes left in the game when she scored off a penalty corner from Herbine and Schalk.

INSIDE THE BOX SCORE

  • Ila Gunner made her first collegiate appearance when she replaced Halenkamp and recorded two saves.
