GREENSBORO, N.C. – The Greensboro College women's soccer team fell to the Maroons of Roanoke College Wednesday on Pride Field 2-0.
After the two teams played to a scoreless draw over the first 45 minutes, despite both teams having scoring opportunities, the Maroons were able to strike for the first time in the 50
th minute.
The score then remained the same for the next 35 minutes before Roanoke struck for the game's final goal of the contest.
"We were searching for answers today and came up short," Head Coach
Jordan May said. "It was a tough loss, but one I think we needed to take on the chin as a team. We learn from it, move on, and focus on getting better tomorrow."
Despite having two saves,
Kelsey Emrich was credited with the loss in goal for the Pride. Greensboro finished with four shots on the day as
Anna Rae Porcelli finished with three shots on goal.
The Pride women will return to action Sunday when they travel to Eastern Mennonite University in Harrisonburg, Va. to take on the Royals. For more information on Greensboro College women's soccer, continue to follow www.greensborocollegesports.com.
