LAREDO, Texas – Texas A&M International women's soccer (1-1, 0-0 LSC) scored with just over 16 minutes remaining to break a 1-1 tie and give head coach Jon Hussak his first win with the Dustdevils, beating St. Edward's (0-2, 0-0 LSC) 2-1 in a non-conference matchup.

At the 53:03 mark of the second half, freshman Priscila Carrillo netted her first collegiate goal to make it 1-0 TAMIU with assist coming from sophomore Izabella Correa.
 
The Hilltoppers responded just 5:56 later, receiving a goal from Emma Viquez on an assist by Sarah Preston.
 
However, at 73:38, senior Valeria Macias buried an unassisted goal into the back of the net to give the Dustdevils a 2-1 lead, one they would not relinquish.
