UD Women’s Soccer Comes up Short in Opener

The Dallas women’s soccer dropped the season opener Tuesday night against the East Texas Baptist University Tigers falling, 3-0. Though the final score didn’t indicate it, the Lady Crusaders played the Tigers tough, and8 to a deadlock through 50 minutes before allowing three second half goals. Additionally, UD fared quite well by launching nine total shots to the opponents’ 14. Senior forward Lindsay Arend (Napa, CA/Trinity Grammar & Prep) led in total shots with three while freshman Marie Meagher (Grand Forks, ND/Red River H.S.) led in shots on goal booting two on net in two attempts. Senior keeper Jenifer Boryca (Piqua, OH/Piqua H.S.) stopped only four of seven shots she faced.

UD will look to rebound on Friday when they open at home to host the University of Mary-Hardin Baylor at 5:00pm on Crusader Field.
