Billings, Mont. – Montana State Billings women's soccer team is looking to pull off the hat trick and win their third match this week. The Yellowjackets (2-0-1, 1-0 GNAC) host Western Washington University (4-0, 1-0 GNAC) on Saturday, Sept. 21 who come into the bout ranked No. 4 nationally according to the Sept. 17 NSCAA/Continental Tire national poll.
 
The Jackets are on a two game winning streak defeating University of Mary 2-0 on Sept. 16 and turning away fellow GNAC member Simon Fraser 2-0 on Sept. 19. Heidi Greenback has scored two goals this week and will need to continue her hot streak if MSU Billings plans to come out on top tomorrow.
 
MSUB is currently on a three game losing streak against the Vikings; and in their last match-up Western Washington defeated the Yellowjackets in the inaugural GNAC Women's Soccer post-season Tournament championship match.
 
The Vikings are the reigning GNAC regular season and post-season tournament champs. Including three exhibition matches, Western Washington is on a seven game winning streak in 2013. The Vikings average 2.25 goals per game, a .493 shot on goal percentage and 17.8 shots per game.
