Women’s Soccer falls to YSU in tournament quarterfinals

DAYTON — The Wright State women's soccer program fell to Youngstown State 2-1 in the Horizon League Championship quarterfinals on Sunday afternoon at Alumni Field. 

The Raiders conclude their season with an 8-7-3 overall record and a 5-2-3 mark against conference opponents. Youngstown State (8-7-3, 5-3-2 HL) will continue its postseason run against Purdue Fort Wayne on Thursday, November 3, in the tournament semifinals. 

YSU raced out to a 2-0 advantage in the quarterfinals matchup, as Taylor Berry netted a penalty kick goal in the 35th minute and an unassisted goal at the 86-minute mark. 

Michelle Rings closed Wright State's deficit to 2-1 in the 87th minute with her second goal of the season, coming on a penalty kick. However, the Penguins held the WSU scoreless on one off-target shot in the closing minutes to clinch the game. 

The Raiders outshot YSU 14-13 overall, including an 8-4 edge in the second half. The teams finished even in saves (6-6) and corner kicks (3-3). 

Lauren Borchert came close to scoring with a team-leading three shots on goal over 73 minutes of action. Alana Nesbit provided a spark off the bench with two shots on goal. WSU goalkeeper Jessika Seward tallied six saves, tied for her second-highest total of the season.
