KUTZTOWN, Pa. (Oct. 3, 2009) -

Anne Waapu (Hastings, NEW ZEALAND/) added two goals for KU

The Golden Bears, entered the contest ranked No. 5, had a 2-1 lead midway through the first half after Waapu placed a shot past the goalie and into the back right corner of the cage.

The Golden Bears battled all night and the score does not do justice for the effort they gave. KU held a 12-11 advantage in penalty corners and managed eight shots on goal against the stingy defense of the Huskies.

"I knew we would come out with intensity," said assistant coach Beth Wheeler. "We had a great practice on Friday night and the girls were giving everything they had. Their effort was beyond what I expected, we came out of our slump. The score does not reflect our effort."

The Golden Bears will travel to Shippensburg on Monday for a 4 p.m. contest.
