Texans fall to Seattle U on three-goal second half

    STEPHENVILLE, Texas — Tarleton State Women's Soccer held Seattle U scoreless in the first half but was unable to answer to three Redhawk goals in the second to fall, 3-0, on Sunday afternoon at the Tarleton Soccer Complex.
 
    Seattle U (4-2-0 WAC,  6-8-1 Overall) now has totaled 12 points and holds the second spot in the WAC standings. Tarleton State (1-3-1, 4-8-3)  is still in contention for a playoff spot currently in seventh but just two points behind Abilene Christian.
 
    Mikayla Kendall improved her WAC-leading saves total to 98 collecting seven against the Redhawks.
 
    Avery Harr was responsible for three of Tarleton's five shots with one of hers landing on goal, increasing her season total to 13, just two away from tying the program record set by her last fall.
 
    Seattle U started the second half out hot with a pair of goals in the first two minutes of the fresh half. Caroline Penner started the scoring finding the back left corner of the net from the middle of the 18-yard box to put the Redhawks ahead, 1-0.
 
    Just 30 seconds later, Savannah Singleton found herself in the far-right corner of the 18-yard box heavily guarded when she flipped the ball in the direction of the left side of the goal where it popped over Kendal for the second goal of the contest.
 
    Trailing by two in the 70th minute, Lauren Grissom launched a shot from just outside the 18-yard box that just barely found the leaping hand of the keep to push it over the crossbar and save the near goal.
 
    Seattle U tacked on an insurance goal with less than two minutes remaining when Emma de la Cruz found Kailee Wilson in space who fired in her third goal of the season.
 
    The Redhawks prevented any Texan scoring threats in the final two minutes to preserve the 3-0 shutout.
 
     Once again, the Texans recorded more saves than their opponent (7-3) and committed less fouls (8-2). Seattle U held the advantage in shots, 20-5 and on goal, 10-3.
 
    Next week, Tarleton State will open a road trip on Thursday night in St. George, Utah against Utah Tech at 8 p.m. at Zion Greater Stadium. The Texans will stay in the Beehive State for a Sunday afternoon match against Southern Utah at 1 p.m. at Thunderbird Soccer Field in Cedar City.
