Fort Wayne IN  --  The Cougars got back on the winning track with a convincing 4-1 victory over cross town rival Indiana Tech. 

Senior Megan Garrett celebrated her birthday with a goal and an assist to pace the attack and Freshman Kari Baughn picked up her first collegiate win in goal recording 1 save.  Junior Mary Whisler took a pass from Garrett in just the second minute and drilled a ball past the Tech keeper.  Indiana Tech fought hard and kept the score at 1 into the half but could not hold off a determined USF side.  Megan Garrett scored from 25 yards to push the score to 2-0.  Just 1 minute later, Sophomore Kara Schultheis floated a ball into the net to extend the lead to 3-0.  Senior Laura Leffers finished the USF scoring off a corner kick taken by freshman Rachel Schenk.  Kari Baughn was denied her first full shutout when Indiana Tech's Sara Davies scored with just 45 seconds remaining. 

The Cougars return to MCC action on Saturday for Senior day against Goshen College at 4:00.
