POCATELLO, Idaho - The Thunderbird soccer team traveled to Pocatello Friday for a Big Sky matchup with the Idaho State Bengals. Junior forward Ally Thimsen had three goals on the night and sophomore goalkeeper Destiny Collins completed her first shutout of the season to give the T-Birds a 3-0 win.

The Thunderbirds took a 2-0 lead in the 25th minute when Thimsen took a pass from sophomore Devri Hartle and fired it past the goalkeeper for her sixth goal on the season.
