Faith's women's soccer team made history on Saturday with a 4-1 win over Rochester Community and Technical College (RCTC), marking their first-ever victory against the program. This win also gives Faith their highest season win total since 2019, when they finished 13-5-1 and earned a spot in the NCCAA national tournament.

The scoring started with Jordyn Frerichs finding the back of the net 3 minutes into the match. Abigail Speichinger and Emma Boldt further bolstered the offense with two goals to finish first half scoring, and Speichinger added one more in the second half for the Eagles. Assists were provided by Bethany Speichinger and Eliana Fritz, contributing to the balanced attack.
