WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Purdue soccer finished the 2025 season on a high note Sunday afternoon, earning a 2–0 shutout victory over Minnesota at Elizabeth Lyle Robbie Stadium.
Behind goals from Megan Santa Cruz and Irene Campo, the Boilermakers secured their third Big Ten win and wrapped up the year at 6–10–3 (3–7–1 B1G).
Purdue came out firing early and grabbed the lead in the 11th minute. Santa Cruz buried her fourth goal of the season after a clever buildup, slotting home a pass from midfielder Emilia Deppe to make it 1–0. The Boilermakers kept the pressure on throughout the half, recording 10 shots and five on target before the break.
In the second half, Purdue’s attack stayed sharp. In the 66th minute, Campo doubled the lead with her eighth goal of the year, finishing a pinpoint assist from Santa Cruz to seal the win.
Defensively, Emily Edwards was outstanding in goal, making seven saves, one off of her single-game best, in over 83 minutes of play before Ally Lynch came on to finish the shutout.
The win marks the season finale for the Boilermakers, but Purdue will play host to the ten qualifiers of the Big Ten Tournament beginning at Folk Field on Oct. 30-Nov. 2.
