The Central women's soccer team opened up MCAC play with a 2-5 loss on the road at Central Baptist College. The Mustangs led 2-0 at the intermission and then added 3 more goals in the second half before the Tigers were able to get on the board.
Krystina Powell, who leads the Tigers with 7 goals on the season, got the Tigers' first goal in the 80th minute off an assist from
Susan Alt. The Tigers scored their second goal moments later off of a corner kick.
Stephanie Street played the ball in to a waiting
Susan Alt who found the back of the net.
The Tigers were outshot 21-5 by the Mustangs, and took 4 more corner kicks.
Amanda Curtis was in goal for the Tigers, filling in for the injured
Bri Horstmann. Curtis recorded 9 saves in the loss. Coach Reimer commented, "Tough first conference game. It's little mistakes that lead to goals that are killing us right now. We played much better in the 2
nd half, we got down 5 goals but the ladies continued to fight through and scored a couple of goals. We possessed pretty good, and attacked well. We'll continue to work. We're close to getting a couple of players back from injuries this week, one we haven't had all year. We're hoping that will make a difference as we get deeper into conference play."
The Tigers are now 1-10 on the season and 0-1 in the MCAC. CCC will be back home again on Wednesday at 3:00 against Southwestern Christian University.
