SEATTLE, Wa. (Sept. 24)—Tricia Loomis scored twice and Shannon Lovejoy registered a goal and an assist as nationally 2nd-ranked Seattle Pacific University booted Humboldt State 3-0, in a Great Northwest Athletic Conference women’s soccer match Saturday afternoon at Interbay Stadium.

The Falcons (10-0/3-0-0) remained undefeated with the win, and pushed their regular season unbeaten streak to 47 (45-0-2) games. SPU has not lost a GNAC match since Sept. 25, 2002 (33-0-2). Humboldt State dropped to 4-6-0/0-2-0 on the season.

Loomis (So., Des Moines, Wa.) booted the Falcons a 1-0 lead heading into the locker room at intermission when she received a thru-pass on the right side from teammate Shannon Lovejoy (Sr., Seattle, Wa.), and beat Humboldt State keeper Staci Self to the near post with a hard, low shot (37:23). Lovejoy threaded the ball between two defenders.

Twenty minutes into the second half, Lovejoy connected on a penalty kick for her second goal of the season after a Humboldt defender took down forward Sarah Martinez (So., Bothell, Wa.) in the box. Lovejoy, a returning All-American has a team-high seven assists on the season.

Loomis hit net for the second time on a penalty kick at 88:13 for the final margin.

Seattle Pacific out-shot the Lumberjacks 18-0, as the Falcon defense kept HSU out of the attacking third the majority of the game. Jennifer Burns earned the shutout in goal for SPU while Self saved eight balls.
