There were a lot of goals scored by the Pac-12 teams this week and not a lot given up. Ally Moon, of Arizona State, is the conference leader in goals with four and Sam Mewis of UCLA follows her with three goals on the short season. There are a bunch of players with two goals following these two ladies for the top goals in the conference.

The goalies are also shining in the Pac-12. UCLA finally allowed a shot on goal Sunday night, but their goalkeeper Katelyn Rowland stopped it and picked up her fourth shutout in as many games to start the season. Oregon’s Abby Steele, Washington State’s Gurveen Claire, and Stanford’s Jane Campbell all have three shutouts to keep pace with Rowland. The most impressive shutout of the week was Oregon State’s Bella Geist, who recorded 14 saves to earn her first shutout of the season Friday night against Loyola Marymount.

The strong play continues for the Pac-12 and these women will look to keep the conference at the top of college soccer landscape this week.
