No. 9 Baylor soccer (4-0-0) earned two key road wins this weekend against the University of Washington Huskies and the Southern Methodist University Mustangs. The Bears defeated the Huskies 1-0 in Seattle on Friday night and then conquered SMU 2-0 on Sunday night in Dallas.

Despite playing in hostile environments, Baylor’s defense got the job done limiting the Huskies to six shots and the Mustangs to nine. The Baylor defense was on full display when the team didn’t allow the Huskies to have its first shot until the 71st minute. SMU’s offense was kept in check as the Bears earned a fourth straight shutout.

No. 7 Baylor soccer will be tested on the road at 5:30 p.m. Friday against the University of Washington Huskies.

The Huskies (1-1) struggled offensively last weekend scoring only one goal in two matches despite having 29 attempts. In the game against UNC Greensboro, the Huskies outshot the opponent 24-4, but it took two overtimes to get a win. The Huskies fell 0-3 to No. 21 UCF in their season opener. The team struggled to generate any kind of offense as UCF only allowed five shot attempts. Despite the offensive drought, Baylor is not going to underestimate the opponent.
