FIU breaks school record for wins

10/23/09

MIAMI – From the moment sophomore Thaisa Moreno pumped her fist after drawing a penalty shot, you knew the forward expected nothing less than a goal.
Turns out Moreno’s sixth goal of the season was also her third game-winner in the FIU women’s soccer team’s 1-0 victory versus UALR on Friday night. With the win, the Golden Panthers (9-5-3, 7-1-1) broke the school record for the most wins during the Sun Belt season.
Of their nine conference opponents thus far, the Golden Panthers have held all but two teams to one goal or less. Friday night’s shutout was the sixth of the season and the fourth for goalkeeper Kaitlyn Savage.
The Golden Panthers return to the field on Sunday at 1 p.m. when they host Arkansas State.
