- The Foresters battled the NAIA 25th-ranked
Cougars of St. Francis, but couldn't find the back of
the net and fell 2-0. The Cougars carried most of the
play and finally went ahead with a goal in the 43rd
minute. HC looked to step it up it up in the second
half, but St. Francis continued their high level of
play and increased their lead to 2-0 in the 61st
minute. The Foresters had a breakaway opportunity in
the second half, but the Cougar keeper was able to
push Heather O'Keefe's shot off the crossbar.
"We were disappointed in how we played today,
said Coach Datema. "It has been a hard week
and it just seemed like we didn't have much energy out
there today. St. Francis is a good team and their
possession game took its toll on our players. We've
made it through the toughest part of our schedule
though so we are looking to finish strong in the
second half of the season." With the loss
Huntington now stands at 3-5 on the season and 0-2 in
the MCC. |
