The host St. Louis Park Orioles, who scored 26 goals in their first three games fell to earth Tuesday night as Anne Layon scored two goals to lead the Minneapolis Southwest Lakers to a 4-0 shutout.
The Lakers would account for the lone first half goal 1:09 into the game when Layon's corner kick landed in the net. Southwest's defense would keep St. Louis Park from equaling the score.
Heading into the second half, the Lakers got a gift goal as an Oriole deflected the ball across the goal line. Adeline Simon would get credited for the goal. The lead would increase to three on Layon's header. Southwest would put the game well out of reach on Elika Vihhaji's goal.
The Lakers ended a two game losing streak and improved their record to 1-2. They return to action on Thursday, September 7 at 5 PM against the Edina Hornets at Kuhlman Stadium in Edina. The Orioles three game winning streak ended as they fell to 3-1. They will also be in action on the 7th as they head down Highway 212 to Chanhassen for a 5 PM game against the Storm.
