SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. - San Francisco State sent 15 shots at the Western Oregon goal and two of them found the net during a 2-0 women’s non-conference soccer victory over the Wolves on Thursday afternoon. It was the season opener for both teams.

The Gators used goals from Myriah Johnson and Melina Triantos to secure the win. Johnson scored just a little over 19 minutes into the contest on a cross served by Kate Donaldson, while Triantos added the insurance goal early in the second half.

San Francisco State out-shot WOU 15-3. The Wolves did not get a shot off against the stingy Gator defense in the first half. SFSU goalie Emily Hart claimed the shutout and had three saves in the match.

Senior Ally Meyer and freshman Kesley Blachly split time in the goal. Meyer had one save in the first half, and Blachly had four saves after the break.
