Two WJU Goals in the First Half Sink Urbana

WHEELING, W. Va. -- The Urbana women's soccer team fell 2-0 on the road Saturday against Wheeling Jesuit in Mountain East Conference play.

UU falls to 1-5 overall (1-4 MEC) and WJU earned its first win of the season at 1-4 (1-3 MEC).

Freshman Alyssa Edwards led UU with a pair of shots on frame, along with one shot on goal by Alyssa Garberich. The Blue Knights were out-gunned 9-3 in shots on goal.

Wheeling took the early lead on a penalty kick in the 14th minute, which proved to be the difference-maker. The Cardinals tacked on another goal later in the first half and held on the rest of the way.

The hosts held a 6-2 edge on corner kicks and each team was charged with nine fouls.

UU keeper Katherine Beech registered seven saves between the pipes.

Up next:
UU travels to Notre Dame (OH) on Wednesday for a 4 p.m. contest in South Euclid, Ohio.
