NEWBERG, Ore. -- The Bruins beat the Lewis & Clark Pioneers 1-0 in Portland on Sunday, as Maggie Phillips upped her league-leading goal total to 14. 

How It Happened
The Maggie Phillips Show continued against the Pioneers with one of her most impressive shots of the season: After a series of deflections in the 27th minute, akin to a game of pinball, Lewis and Clark managed to clear it right into the foot of Philips. The junior lined it up and sent a laser into the back of the net from nearly 40 yards out. The goal proved to be the deciding shot of the game.

The Bruins were outshot in the first half, four shots to five, but the Bruin defense continued to be stellar, only allowing one shot on goal the entire half, with Madeline Bailey recording a save. 
The second half featured more impressive defense from the Bruins, facing only six shots, not a single one got by the Fox back line, completing their fifth shutout of the year. Madeline Bailey had two saves, bringing her total for the game to three. 

Top Performances
Outside the offense from Phillips, Courtney Jones recorded a shot on goal, as did Hannah Beardemphl. Bailey notched her fourth shutout of the season with three saves to boot.

Coach's Thoughts
Soon to come.

What It Means
The Bruins continue to dominate in conference play, moving to 4-0-2 in conference and 6-0-2 for the year. Lewis & Clark falls to 3-4-2 (3-2-1 NWC).

What Comes Next
The Bruins will travel to Tacoma, Wash. on Oct. 8th to play the league-leading Pacific Lutheran Lutes in one of the biggest matchups of the year. The game is scheduled to kick off at noon.
