First-place Issaquah was too much for the Ballard High School girls soccer team to handle Oct. 14.

Issaquah (7-1-0 conference, 10-2-0 overall) beat the Beavers 3-0, only the second time they have been shutout in a conference match this season.

There are three matches left for Ballard (2-4-2 conference, 3-7-3 overall), and the competition doesn't get much easier with a match against fourth-place Woodinville (5-2-1 conference, 8-2-2) coming up at 7:30 p.m. on Oct. 20 at Woodinville High School.

Woodinville beat the Beavers 9-0 earlier this season when Ballard rested its varsity players.
