'Roos Hand Pirates Loss in Final Match of Season

'Roos Hand Pirates Loss in Final Match of Season

SHERMAN, Texas - Austin College scored two first half goals and then packed it in defensively to beat Southwestern women's soccer 2-0 in their final game of the season on Sunday. The loss marks the end of the Pirates' season with an 8-7-2 overall record, 2-5-1 record in the SCAC.

AC scored just two minutes into the contest and added one more in the 25th minute to take a 2-0 lead into the break. The 'Roos came out of halftime with a new strategy, to protect their lead, and packed their defense into the box to keep SU's offense from mounting a comeback. The tactic worked as the Pirates weren't able to get on the scoreboard as the match came to close.

Southwestern ends the year in ninth place in the SCAC and marks the final season for three seniors, Jillian Curran, Laura Ornelas and Maria Pollifrone.
