LIVONIA, Mich.
--
The Madonna women's
soccer team dropped a 2-1 decision to Cornerstone after the Golden
Eagles netted two goals in just over a minute apart in the second
half at Greenmead Field on Tuesday afternoon.
The Crusaders (8-3-2) struck first when freshman
Kaila Moore
(Howell, Mich./Howell HS) scored her fourth goal of the
season on a ball that deflected off the goal keeper's hands and then
the post before finding the back of the net in the 54th minute.
Cornerstone (11-0-1) came roaring back answering Madonna's goal with
two goals in just over a minute apart. Cornerstone's Sarah
Kaufman scored the Golden Eagles first goal off a rebound at the
62:45 mark of the second half.
Lena Baldwin netted the game winner for Cornerstone off a breakaway
at the 63:40 mark of the second half. Baldwin dribbled
past Madonna goal keeper
Traci Anderson
(Brighton, Mich./Brighton HS) before shooting to the back of
the net for the score.
The Crusaders out shot the Golden Eagles 19-10, including nine shots
on target for MU. Cornerstone had only two shots on goal, but
both were put into the back of the net.
With the loss, Madonna falls into a first place tie with Cornerstone
with just two weeks left in the regular season.
The Crusaders will return to action on Saturday, Oct. 7, in a 12:00
p.m. (ET) game in Ann Arbor against Concordia.
