Women's Soccer Team Falls At Spelman 2-1 In GSAC Opener

In the first Great South Athletic Conference match of the season, the Piedmont College women's soccer team was defeated by host Spelman College 2-1 this afternoon in Atlanta, GA. After jumping out to a 1-0 lead, Spelman was able to knot the game at a goal apiece going into the half and then found the eventual game-winner at the 66th minute.

Scoring the goal for PC was Katie Porter who scored at the 39th minute. The goal marked her team-high seventh of the season and her 16th total offensive point. The Lady Lions could not hold the lead and were held scoreless for the final 51 minutes of the match.

The loss drops PC to 1-3-1 overall and 0-1 in the Great South Athletic Conference. The Lady Lions will return to action again on Saturday, September 16th in a 2005 GSAC championship game rematch at Maryville College in Maryville, TN. Game-time is slated for 1:00.
