PRINCE GEORGE, B.C. –  The No. 7-ranked Trinity Western Spartans earned a second straight clean sheet win over UNBC, beating the Timberwolves 4-0 Sunday at Masich Place Stadium. 

Sophie Crowther had yet another dominant effort as a set-up person, assisting on all four goals to help lift the Spartans (8-2) to their sixth straight win. Crowther now leads U SPORTS with 10 assists in nine games and is tied for the Canda West lead in points, with 14.

Mansha Sidhu, Charis Wardrope, Lucy Haigh and Caitlin Cooper scored for the Spartans in a game that saw TWU outshoot UNBC 25-1.

Sidhu's goal was her fifth of the season, Haigh's was her second, while Charis Wardrope and Caitlin Cooper each tallied their first goals of the year. 

With the weekend sweep, the Spartans remain second in the Pacific Division and now nine points clear of third-place Victoria. 

QUOTABLE 
Graham Roxburgh, TWU Head Coach
"I was really pleased with our start today and our ability to generate chances off of our passing was excellent. We got a bit sloppy and methodical as the half wore on and we need to be sharper in our next games. What pleased me the most was the work ethic and a bit more of an aggressive mentality. Sophie Crowther's assists were great and to get a number of players on the score sheet is helpful. Overall it was a good weekend but we can still be better."

The Spartans will spend their final two weekends of the regular season at home, with UBC in town on Oct. 10 and Victoria at Chase Office Field on Oct. 11 before back-to-back games at TWU against Fraser Valley Oct. 17-18.
