(Elkins, WV) --- The A-B Women's Soccer team suffered another tough loss yesterday afternoon, a 1-0 setback to the host Lady Senators of Davis and Elkins College. With the loss the Lady Battlers fall to 1-2-1 Overall and 0-2-1 in WVIAC play.

D&E Midfielder Megan Beal broke a scoreless tie with a perfectly placed outside shot in the 80th minute. Beal would take a pass on the left side from Midfield Luci Legaspi, turn and place a left footed shot into the upper right corner for the game winner.

Excluding the goal, the game was a tightly contested battle between the two teams. D&E held a 12-7 advantage on shots and place three shots on goal compared to the two from A-B.

The Lady Battlers got their best chance in the final minutes of the opening half as they got back to back corner kicks, but they were unable to put a solid shot on frame.

Then with time running down Midfielder Gwen Brand (Fr., Kingwood, WV) just narrowly missed with her header off a Lizzy Turner (Fr., Fairmont, WV) cross from the left corner.

Alderson - Broaddus has a short layoff as they play host to non conference foe WVU - Tech on Saturday. This will be a doubleheader with both the Men's and Women's teams taking on WVU-T. The Women's match is slated to kickoff at 1pm, with the men schedule to start at 3pm.
