The Butler University women’s soccer team has won their last six games in a row via shutout, a program record.
They are 6-1-1, including a tie against then-ranked No. 18 University of Notre Dame on Aug. 18 and a 2-0 win over then No. 10 Texas A&M University on Sept. 8.
Judging from the lack of ranking at the beginning of the season, coaches across the country were not expecting much from Butler women’s soccer.
