ST. CHARLES, Mo. – The Lindenwood women's soccer team (3-0-1, 0-0-0 OVC) battled Omaha (2-0-2, 0-0-0 Summit) to a 0-0 draw at Hunter Stadium on Sunday afternoon. The gritty performance makes it four unbeaten to begin the season for the Lions.

Game Overview
Lindenwood got off four shots in the first half, with Tasneem Dizdarevic and Maddy Vasiloff recording two attempts apiece. Dizdarevic was responsible for LU's only shot on goal of the half in the game's eleventh minute.

The Lions earned four opportunities from the corner compared to zero for the Mavericks but were unable to convert any of them for scores.

Despite controlling 61% of the possession in the first half, Omaha only posted one more shot than Lindenwood and no goals, with Caroline Ritter making three saves through the first 45.  

The second half was much the same offensively for Lindenwood, with Mackenzie Compton and Lily Sutter each posting a pair of shots. Compton got a good look at goal from outside the box that carried just over the post in the game's 61st minute, while Sutter recorded the Lions' second shot goal in the contest's closing minutes.

Omaha took a more aggressive approach in the second half, recording a total of nine shots. However, their best opportunity on goal was turned away by Caroline Ritter, who made a diving save on a ball low and away to her left. Ritter was mostly untested for the remainder of the match, as she finished the afternoon with a season-high eight saves and turned in her second clean sheet of the season.
