Cardinals shut out Wildcats

The Spokesman-Review

Makayla Desjarlais made seven saves as North Idaho’s women’s soccer team registered a 2-0 shutout over Western Nevada in Saturday’s Scenic West Athletic Conference action in Coeur d’Alene.

Desjarlais made six of her saves in the second half as the Wildcats pushed for an equalizer that would never come.

Meghan Kahnle gave the Cardinals (10-6, 5-2) an early lead, scoring in the ninth minute off an assist from Kasey Knowles. Knowles sent the ball from the right side of the midfield to a streaking Kahnle on the left. Kahnle then dribbled around Western Nevada goalkeeper Lisa Berryman and slotted home the opener.

NIC iced the game in the 87th minute. Kahnle was dribbling down the field, when Berryman came out to meet her. The two collided and the ball popped loose to Deanna Zimmerman, who scored into the empty net.
