Winfield, Kan.- The University of Saint Mary Women's Soccer team lost 4-1 to Southwestern College on Saturday. The Spire's overall record is now 0-6 and 0-1 in conference play, heading into Wednesday's home matchup against McPherson College.

Saint Mary was on the defensive from the start as the Builders took multiple shots, one eventually made its way through, giving them the lead.
