In a competitive defensive showdown Sunday, Oct. 7, the Waves prevailed against the No. 2 ranked team in the NCAA, Santa Clara University. The lone goal of the game was scored by senior Meghan Healy in the 43rd minute.

The Waves came into their third league game with a record of 6-6-1. Santa Clara had a record of 11-1-1, only losing to Texas A&M University and tying No. 1 Stanford University.

The game started out fast-paced. Both teams were playing sound soccer for much of the first half, and the defenders for the Waves set the tone early.
