Reported by: Ricardo LeCompte Sunday, Nov 1, 2009 @11:14pm CST Midwestern State dominated play in its regular season finale Sunday afternoon at the MSU Soccer Field. But Angelo State's Lauren Carnes finished a counter to net the lone goal of the game as the Rambelles spoiled MSU Senior Day with a 1-0 win.
The Mustangs (12-4-2, 6-4) slipped to a No. 4 seed in this week's Lone Star Conference Women's Soccer Championship which will be played The Pitch on the campus of West Texas A&M in Canyon, Texas beginning on Thursday. MSU will face Abilene Christian in the opening round Thursday at 2:30 p.m. With a win, the Mustangs would battle host West Texas A&M Friday afternoon at 2:30 p.m. The championship match is slated for Sunday at 1 p.m. The Mustangs outshot Angelo State by a 22-6 margin and had a goal waved off in the 33rd minute after Lindsay Pritchard tapped in a rebound to give the Mustangs an apparent 1-0 lead. But Pritchard was ruled offside to nullify the goal. Midwestern kept solid possession throughout much of the 90 minutes of play, but the Rambelles were able to piece together a counterattack in the 60th minute. ASU senior Skylar Searles fed a ball forward to Brandie DeBacker, who found Carnes breaking free on the left wing for her first collegiate goal to provide the difference. The Rambelles end the season with a 10-9 record and to 4-6 in the LSC. |
