PC Drops First Home Game Of 2007

CLINTON, S.C. ? Presbyterian College's women's soccer team fell 3-0 to Liberty on Sunday afternoon at Martin Soccer Stadium.

The Flames picked up their first victory of the season with the win to improve to 1-6 on the year, while PC dropped to 3-4 on the 2007 season with the loss.

The Blue Hose gave up the first goal of the match in the sixth minute when Liberty's Maggie Woody connected on a free kick from 20 yards out to give the Flames an early 1-0 advantage.

Liberty, who finished the first half having outshot the Blue Hose 15-8, tacked on another to go ahead 2-0 at the 32:18 mark of the first half when newly inserted Ally Erving made good on her coach's choice to put her in the game by beating PC goalkeeper Erin Sinkuler to the far upper right corner of the net.

The Blue Hose held the Flames scoreless for the opening minutes of the second half, but Liberty was able to break through with 26 minutes left in the second half.

Maria Owen scored the goal after teammate Brittney Bench maneuvered the endline to cross the ball to the waiting legs of Owen, who found the back of the net to give Liberty the eventual final score of 3-0.

Liberty finished the contest having seven more shots than PC (20-13), while the two teams both had three corner kicks in the game.

The Blue Hose will try and break a two-game skid at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, Oct. 3 against Coastal Carolina in Conway, S.C.

They will then return home for a 7 p.m. game against Winthrop on Saturday, Oct. 6.
