Women’s Soccer closes season at Mansfield Saturday night

The LHU women’s soccer team fell in overtime on the road in a conference clash with Mansfield, 1-0.

MANSFIELD, Pa. – The Lock Haven University women's soccer team (5-12-1, 3-12-1 PSAC East) fell to Mansfield (2-14-2, 1-13-2 PSAC East), 1-0, in overtime on Saturday night. The contest marked the finale of Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference regular season action for the Bald Eagles.

After the opening 45 minutes, the two sides were locked into a tight defensive battle, but LHU peppered the Mansfield goalkeeper with 14 second half shots. Despite their best efforts the Mountie defense held strong, and the game was forced into overtime at 0-0.

Ultimately, Mansfield finally found the breakthrough in the 92nd minute when Emily Smith knocked home the overtime winner for the Mounties.

The Haven logged 21 shots in the clash but were unable to find the back of the net. Josie Swartz (Mifflintown, Pa./Juniata) and Evelyn Ciaccia (Fairless Hills, Pa./Pennsbury) took four shots each and paced the offensive effort for Lock Haven.

LHU's back line turned in an impressive performance as they were able to keep the Mansfield offense at bay and off-balance, only allowing the team to put two shots-on-goal.

Kylie Auman (Centre Hall, Pa./Penns Valley) started in goal for LHU, and kept the Bald Eagles within reach all game long.
