• The Santa Clara native was active in the two games, taking a total of 10 shots with seven of them on frame.

• CSUN freshman Kacie Garrity earned her first career Big West Women’s Soccer Defensive Player of the Week honor after anchoring a defense that allowed just one goal in 200 minutes of action.

• The defender booted her first career goal in the second half of a 1-1 tie at Arizona State. Off a run from the left side, Garrity took the ball deep into ASU’s side and unleashed a high-arching shot from the left corner of the box into the right corner of the net at the 48:06 mark.

• In addition to her offensive contributions, she was a vital cog on the defensive end. Her work on defense held the fifth-highest scoring team in the nation to one goal. Garrity played the full 110 minutes in Tempe.

• Garrity also helped the Matadors post their sixth shutout of the season with a 2-0 victory at Grand Canyon.
