Box Score ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. – The USC Aiken women's soccer
team mounted a furious second half charge, but it would not be
enough in a 2-0 loss to Flagler in Peach Belt Conference
women's soccer action on a rain-soaked Saturday evening at
Saints Field.
The loss to Flagler drops the Pacers to 2-7 on the 2010 season.
The Pacers are now 0-4 in PBC play. Flagler with the victory
improves to 4-4-1, which includes an even 2-2 record in PBC
action.
Flagler scored its first goal of the match in the
36th-minute when Amanda Slevin was able to score off a
Hannah Linton corner kick. The goal was the first of the season for
Slevin.
Just over two minutes later in the 38th-minute,
Flagler was able to produce another goal when Taylor Adkins scored
her first goal of the year. She was assisted by Tara Whitaker.
The Pacers came out firing in the second half in hopes of
getting itself back into the contest. USC Aiken did just that,
controlling play in the second stanza. Despite outshooting Flagler,
10-7, in the second half, USC Aiken would still be unable to
acquire a goal.
The match ended with Flagler clinging to a 15-11 shot advantage.
The Saints held a 6-3 advantage in corner kicks in the match.
Alli Edens (Lexington, S.C./College of Charleston) played all 90
minutes between the pipes for USC Aiken in the match. Edens made
