LOS ANGELES – The Gonzaga women's soccer team picked up their 10^th victory of the season with a 3-0 win at Loyola Marymount Wednesday.
 
The Zags (10-4-1, 3-1-1 West Coast Conference) secured their third-straight 10-win season. It's the seventh double-digit win season in program history. GU had four consecutive double-digit win seasons from 2003 to 2006. Wednesday's win was also the 30^th for Chris Watkins as head coach at Gonzaga.
 
The Bulldogs' Samantha Heilman opened the scoring in the 24^th minute. Her fifth goal of the season came off of a header on a cross by Taylor Kernion. It was Kernion's third assist of the season, and seventh of her career.
 
In the 67^th minute, Maddie Cooley stole the ball from the LMU defense and slid a pass to Madeline Gotta, which led to Gotta's team-high sixth goal of the season. Gotta moved closer to the program's all-time Top-10, with her 12^th career goal. It was Cooley's third career assist, but first points this season.
 
Maggie Conners found the back of the net for the third time this season in the 77^th minute. Gabriela Maas dribbled up the left side of the field, before playing a ball back to Conners, who struck it into the net.
 
Gonzaga outshot Loyola Marymount, 15-11. The Zags placed nine shots on frame, compared to three for LMU. GU had a 10-3 advantage in shots in the first half. The Lions had a 5-1 edge in corner kicks.
 
The Bulldogs forced Sadie Kenny into six saves in the LMU (3-10-2, 2-3-0 WCC) net. Lyza Bosselmann shared time in the Gonzaga net, and made two saves.
 
The Bulldogs return home to host Santa Clara Saturday at 7 p.m. The Broncos (8-5-2, 2-0-2) are receiving votes in the latest national rankings.
