The first goal came off a penalty kick on a call that could have gone either way and the second score happened on a defensive mistake that led to a scramble in the penalty box and the ball rolled into the net. Shots on goal were even and the home team actually hit the post or crossbar on three different occasions in addition to missing a penalty kick of their own.
Senior Dolapo Obahor had an outstanding night and recorded several great shots that just wouldn't go in the net. Freshmen Hannah Norwood and Janay Hunt were consistent on defense and Kirsty Smith, who is nursing a pre-season quad injury, played the entire match and served up several nice passes.
Coach Lochstampfor said, "The overall effort was good, but we made one defensive mistake that resulted in one goal and the penalty kick came as a result of a tough call. It was an evenly played match and I thought our freshmen played very consistently."
The Golden Tigers will return to action on Friday, Sept. 3 at 11 a.m. when they face off against Mobile, Ala., at the AUM Capital City Classic in Montgomery, Ala.
