SAN MARCOS, Texas – For the second straight match, the Texas State soccer team came out on top in a 1-0 contest. On a hot Sunday afternoon, it was over Prairie View A&M at the Bobcat Soccer Complex with the lone tally coming from senior Genesis Turman.

The Bobcats improve to 2-0 on the season for the first time since 2016 while the Panthers drop to 0-2. The victory also extended TXST's undefeated streak to 15 matches, setting a new program record and currently the longest active streak in the nation as of this afternoon. Texas State also took over the longest active nationally streak for shutouts over a single opponent with its 13th consecutive shutout of PVAMU.
 
In the ninth minute, Texas State won a corner kick that Renny Moore sent into the box. Sarah Everett and Kaylee Davis both headed the ball before a Panther's clearance attempt saw the ball landed in open space about eight yards out. Davis passed the ball between a defenders legs and the goalkeeper dove but missed the ball.
 
Another defender attempted to clear the ball out of the box but it smacked Turman right in the stomach and ricocheted into the back of the net.
