Last Minute Goal Thwarts Women’s Soccer

Bison fall in the waning moments to Blue Raiders

WASHINGTON (August 27, 2023) – Howard University women's soccer suffered a last-minute loss, 1-0, to the likes of Middle Tennessee State (MTSU) Sunday afternoon in what was an evenly matched battle throughout 90 minutes.
 
Howard managed to get three shots off in the first half, two of which were on goal. The Bison kept the Blue Raiders at bay, thwarting six shots to go into the half in a 0-0 stalemate.
 
The second half held a similar rhythm until the final moments.
 
Watching the build-up unfold in front of her, MTSU senior Eleanor Gough (Milton Keynes, England) positioned herself to the right of the net ready to connect with the ball given the chance. With 3:48 left in the game, Faith Adje (Frisco, Texas) sent a ball in Gough's direction to give the Blue Raiders the only point of the match.
 
Senior Marli Berry (Orangevale, Calif.) led the Bison offense with two shots on goal while newcomer goalie Trinity Knox (Atlanta) recorded four saves in the 90 minutes.
 
The Bison are back in action Sunday (Sept. 3) at 1 p.m. when they host the Longwood Lancers.
