CLARKSVILLE, Ark. — Millsaps women's soccer and University of the Ozarks played to a scoreless draw on Sunday at Thomas and Frances Wilson Soccer Field. Senior goalkeeper Emily Lozano made seven saves to secure her seventh career shutout.

The Eagles recorded an eight-save shutout of their own. Both teams registered 12 shots, with Millsaps placing eight on target.

The first half began with Lozano making a crucial save against a shot from Carley Garcia in the opening minutes, setting the tone for a defensive battle.

Millsaps' offensive efforts were highlighted by freshman Lola Downer, who had six shot attempts and four shots on goal, including a close attempt in the 22nd minute that was saved by the Eagles' goalkeeper, Jayla Lucas.
