Beavers Fall to Principia in Women's Soccer

On Saturday, October 19, the Blackburn College Women's Soccer Team traveled to Principia College, hoping to dampen the Panthers homecoming weekend and bring home a win.

Testing Blackburn's defense, Principia finished the first half with a total of 23 shots. 

In the second half, the Panthers came back even stronger, adding 26 more shots for a game total of 49.

At the end of the match, Blackburn's keeper Shana Sewick had a total of 14 saves on the afternoon.

While Blackburn couldn't find a way to push forward and attack the opposing goal, the women proved themselves defensively, preventing many scoring opportunities for Principia.

The Beavers face Greenville College on Wednesday at 3 pm following the men's home game, looking to improve on their 1-4 conference record.
