UWM’s women’s soccer will play in the Horizon League Championship final 6 p.m. Saturday at Engelmann Stadium.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

UWM advanced against Oakland University on penalty kicks, 4-2, in Thursday night\u2019s league semifinals. The teams played to a 1-1 draw in regulation and extra time. Then UWM freshman goalkeeper Elaina LaMacchia saved two of Oakland\u2019s four attempts in the shootout, while the Panthers\u2019 shot-takers were perfect on all of theirs.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the third straight season the Panthers have reached the league\u2019s title match. UWM\u2019s was eliminated on penalty kicks in the 2017 league finals.<\/p>\n

The Panthers gave up the game\u2019s first goal at the hour mark, but drew level just four minutes later when UWM freshman substitute Rafferty Kugler headed the ball into Oakland\u2019s net from six yards out.<\/p>\n

The Panthers won their fourth consecutive Horizon League regular-season title by posting a perfect 9-0 league record. UWM is 15-1-1 overall and seeks its first trip to the NCAA Tournament since 2013.<\/p>\n
