A pair of reserves came off the KU bench and netted late goals as No. 18 Kansas surged past the Western Michigan Broncos 2-0 Sunday afternoon at WMU Soccer Complex.

Sophomores Chais Wright and Samantha Barnett each netted their first-career goals less than one minute apart to propel their team to the victory. KU’s third straight win moved the team to 7-1-0 on the year, while Western Michigan fell to 2-4-0.

KU ended the contest putting 15 of its 31 shots on frame, while the Mustangs managed only one shot on target.
