Katie Vanden Avond
St. Norbert College senior Katie Vanden Avond’s long pursuit of the NCAA Division III women’s soccer career goals record is over.
Vanden Avond’s goal in the 60th minute of the Green Knight’s 1-1 tie with nationally ranked UW-La Crosse gave her the 125th goal of her career. The marker vaulted her past Luther College’s Katie Pettigrew, who scored 124 goals from 2001-04.
La Crosse outshot St. Norbert 19-9 for the match and 7-1 in the two overtime sessions, but goaltender Maddie Plinska made nine saves for the Green Knights.
