Women’s soccer against EKU ends in tie

Last Wednesday the woman’s soccer team played their second match-up of the season, taking on Eastern Kentucky University. The game was played at IPFW’s Hefner Stadium but the home field advantage did not help: the game ended in a 1-1 knot.

EKU made the initial move, scoring in the first period, and when IPFW was unable to answer back, Kentucky kept the lead through the entire first half. (1-0)
Finally at the end of the first period of the second half, junior Felicia Jones accepted an assist from freshman Elise Mamanu-Gray and scored on a nine yard shot with her left foot, for the last score of the game.

IPFW ended with 15 shot attempts and nine shots on goal. EKU ended their evening with only one and seven. The Mastodons will return the green Sunday August 22 in Mount Pleasant, Michigan as they take on Central Michigan, and again on Thursday August 26 at Hefner Stadium.
