Missouri Western recorded a big conference victory Sunday afternoon at Spratt Stadium, defeating Southwest Baptist 1-0.

The game’s first goal was quickly scored, as AJ Powers aimed a kick toward the 5-yard line, and bounced into Teddi Serna’s possession and she cleared the ball to the net in the 3rd minute of the game for her first goal of the season.

The rest of the game saw a few shots that went toward the net, but neither goalkeeper would let any balls in, ending the game 1-0 in favor of the Griffons.

MWSU is now 5-9-1 and 3-7-1 in the MIAA. Southwest Baptist falls to 6-8-2 with a 3-5-2 record in the conference.

Up Next: Missouri Western faces Missouri Southern at 7 p.m. on Friday at Spratt Stadium for a chance to make the MIAA Tournament. It is also senior night, where the Griffons will honor five seniors.
