ROCK ISLAND -- In a battle of teams tied in the upper half of the CCIW standings, the Augustana Vikings women's soccer team collected a 0-0 draw with the visiting Carroll Pioneers on Saturday at Thorson-Lucken Field.

The Augie defense was busy in this one, wrapping up an opening half with an 11-0 deficit in the shots category. The Pioneers saw just three of their 11 attempts on target, all of which were saved by Janey Castoe.

Another big disparity in shots followed in the second half, but this time a majority of Carroll's looks at the net posed scoring threats as nine of their 10 strikes were on target. Castoe continued her strong day in net, racking up eight saves in the final 45 minutes to keep the visitors out of the net and the 0-0 score intact. Caelan Cole fired Augie's lone shot attempt in the 48th minute, but it was saved by the Pioneers.

With the result, Augustana is now 10-3-4 on the season and 3-1-3 in the CCIW. It also clinches the team a spot in the ucpoming CCIW Tournament. The team will wrap up the regular season on Wednesday, October 25 when they travel to Naperville, Ill. to face No. 24 North Central.
