WATERTOWN, Wis. - The Sabercats clashed with the Panthers of Greenville College for the first time in program history, and stood strong through 87 minutes of the contest. Behind Hannah Anderson's 10 saves, the Sabercats' defense almost stood the test of time, but were ultimately undone right at the death via a well-placed Whitney Warner shot from distance with less than three minutes left.

From Coach Anderson

"I'm gutted for the girls as we just missed pulling out a result today. But, I think there are still postives aspects to take away from this game. We took good steps in training this week which led to a more organized and principled approach. I'm also proud of the way we defended today. This is a foundation to build on, so now we can look forward to a full week of training before a good road test next weekend."
