The Grand Valley State women's soccer team, ranked 16th, secured a 2-0 victory against Parkside on Friday in Kenosha, Wisconsin. This win brings the Lakers' season record to 7-1-3 and their GLIAC play record to 4-1-2.

The scoring commenced in the 25th minute when Kennedy Bearden capitalized on a penalty kick following a handball by Parkside in the box. This marked Bearden's third goal of the season.

In the second half, Taylor Reid contributed to doubling the lead in the 67th minute.
