On Wednesday, Pique powered a defense that did not allow a single shot in the Spartans' 4-0 win over Hood. It was the first time York held an opponent without a single shot since October 27, 2021. The shutout is the seventh clean sheet for the Green and White in 2023. In addition to spearheading the defense, Pique scored York's second goal on a penalty stroke in the third quarter. She also added an assist on York's final goal. On Saturday, Pique and the Spartan defense limited Stevenson to just five total shots and one shot on goal in their road win in Owings Mills.
