Box Score SASKATOON, SK - Coming off a 1-0 win over the Manitoba Bisons on Saturday afternoon, the Huskie (2-1-0) women's soccer team was looking to maintain that momentum in Sunday afternoon's tilt against the Winnipeg Wesmen (0-3-2) and they did not disappoint, defeating the Wesmen 5-0.
 
Sunday afternoon was the team's Mental Health Game, in support of mental health awareness. Team captains from both teams were presented with a bouquet of flowers, which were placed on each team's bench to honour those that we have lost due to suicide. Today's game was played in honour of them. 
 
Fourth year Jade Houmphanh opened scoring on Sunday afternoon, with an assist from Naleya Kobussen in the eleventh minute. Kobussen would add a goal of her own two minutes later, with Alyssa D'Agnone and Madison Mayert contributing. That would be the end of scoring for the first half and the Huskies took the 2-0 lead after the first 45 minutes of play.
 
Saskatchewan's Marie Kilcher would add to the Huskie lead in the 57^th minute, and she would add her second of the game in the 70^th minute to put the Huskies up 4-0. Kilcher would add a hat trick goal in the 74^th minute to seal the deal for the Huskies.
