Iowa State picked up right where it left off last weekend with a 1-0 win in the first round of the University of Montana Tournament on Friday night against Montana. The win gave coach Wendy Dillinger her 100th-career win and the Cyclones their second victory of the season.

The lone goal of the game was scored in the 47th minute by ISU freshman Erin Green. Jessica Stewart moved the ball to Green who squeaked it inside the right post from less than ten yards from the net.

The ISU defense played well once again helping freshman keeper Maddie Jobe to her second victory. Senior Ashley Costanzo got the start in net and had two saves before being replaced by Jobe four minutes into the game. Jobe ended the game a perfect four for four on saves.

In the 78th minute, Grizzles defender Rachel Bindl nearly tied the game with a shot, but it deflected off the crossbar and out of harm’s way.

The Cyclones outshot the Grizzles in the game 15-9.

Two yellow cards were issued in the game, one to Frankie Brady of Montana and one to Iowa State junior defender Mary Kate McLaughlin.

Iowa State will resume action Sunday afternoon versus Nevada.
