UNIVERSITY CENTER, Mich. – The Saginaw Valley State University women’s soccer team competed Sunday (Oct. 4) in a Great Lakes Intercollegiate Conference (GLIAC) match against Grand Valley State University.

The lady Cardinals competed well in a double overtime tie against the Lakers. Saginaw Valley’s first goal of the game came in the 26th minute when senior Kristen Kemmer (Bay City, Mich. / John Glenn HS) found an open Renee Privette (Port Huron, Mich. / Port Huron HS) for the Cards first and only goal of the game. SVSU would hold the Lakers scoreless until the 84th minute when Erin Hilbert of Grand Valley found the back of the net to tie the game 1-1. The match would continue into two overtimes where neither team could break the tie. The Cardinals defense played strong once again helping increase sophomore goalkeeper Anne Berschbach’s (Algonac, Mich. / Algonac HS) scoreless streak that broke today at 638 minutes.

With the tie Saginaw Valley’s record moves to 8-1-2 on the season and 5-0-2 in the GLIAC while Grand Valley moves to 10-0-3 overall and 6-0-2 in GLIAC play. The Cardinals return to GLIAC play again Friday (Oct. 9) when they host Tiffin University at 12pm.
