SACRAMENTO, Calif. – The Portland State women's soccer team clinched a spot in the 2025 Big Sky Tournament with a 2-0 victory on Sunday at Hornet Field to close out the regular season.

Portland State's Maya Wells put the Vikings on the board early, capitalizing on a rebound from an Ocean Rideout shot in the 14th minute. Just over 10 minutes later, Rideout doubled the lead off a pass from Kamaria Hughes, placing a shot into the lower right corner of the net to make it 2-0.

Natalie Cunningham and the Viking defense held the Hornets scoreless the rest of the way. Cunningham tallied seven saves en route to her third shutout of the season.

The Vikings placed seven of their nine shots on goal, while the Hornets recorded 14 shots with eight on target. Rideout and Wells combined for five of PSU's attempts, while Camilla Contreras Bran added two.
