EUREKA, Ill. – A pair of second half goals proved the difference Sunday as the Mount Mary University soccer team battled through miserable weather conditions at Eureka College, falling 2-0 to the host Red Devils at McKinzie Field.
Mount Mary (0-13-1 overall) managed just one shot on the afternoon, taken by sophomore Ashton Longazel (Menomonee Falls, Wis./Menomonee Falls) late in the second half.
Eureka (4-12), meanwhile, took 16 total shots, 11 coming on goal. Freshman goalkeeper Brianna Brown (San Diego, Calif./Herbert Hoover) recorded nine saves.
