SAN ANTONIO -- Utah Valley University won its third straight game and swept the Texas portion of the WAC soccer schedule with a 1-0 win at Incarnate Word on Sunday. Blake Frischknecht scored for the sixth straight match and had both game-winning goals on the trip.
 
"The conditions for today's match were exhaustive. 100 degree-plus temperatures, humidity, turf, all made this 1-0 result on the road even that much more impressive," UVU head coach Greg Maas said. "Once we settled into the match we created a number of quality chances, and that could've made it easier on ourselves. That said, I was very proud of our team's individual and collective defending. We were organized, balanced, and committed to not give anything away."

Frischknecht, who scored the game-winner in Friday's 2-1 win at UT Rio Grande Valley, scored on a penalty kick in the 21st minute and the Wolverines (6-3-1, 3-0-0) held on for three points, joining Seattle U as the two remaining unbeaten teams in WAC play. Frischknecht is tied for the WAC lead with seven goals and four game-winners on the season.
 
Joseph Wheelwright recorded five saves to earn the clean sheet, his second straight start with a shutout. Both teams finished with five shots on goal with the Cardinals (3-6-0, 0-3-0) credited with 16 shots overall to Utah Valley's eight.

The Wolverines return to Clyde Field for two home games in WAC play this week. UVU hosts CSU Bakersfield on Thursday at 7:30 p.m. MT and California Baptist on Saturday at 5 p.m. MT.
