“We have six shutouts in 12 games and last year, in 24 games, we had a total of five, so our defense is doing very well and Shane is coming up with some big saves,” said head coach Pete Fewing. “You want your goalkeeper to make one or two goal-saving saves a game and he certainly did that versus Utah Valley, not only in 90 minutes but in 104 minutes. He’s getting better and better, as it’s his first year as a full-time starter, and he’s gaining more confidence.”
Haworth made a season-high nine saves in the thrilling 1-0 double overtime victory on Oct. 18 vs. Utah Valley. The win marked his sixth shutout of the season in 12 total games.
