SEWANEE, Tenn. – After getting two games above .500 on the season, the Dalton State Women's Soccer team has dropped three-straight after a 2-1 defeat to the Sewanee Tigers in Sewanee, Tenn. on Tuesday evening.
Sewanee got on the board first with a goal by Addie Roemershauser in the 11'. The Tigers outshot the Lady Roadrunners 6-5 in the half and took a 1-0 lead into the break.
Dalton State thoroughly dominated the half, getting 11 shots off and holding the Tigers to zero.
Unfortunate circumstances led to a second Sewanee goal as a cross hit Keyle Snyder and deflected into the net for an own goal that game the Tigers a 2-0 lead.
The Lady Roadrunners fought back with Snyder finding some redemption in the process by collecting a goal in the 79' to cut the Tiger lead to one at 2-1. It would not be enough as Sewanee held on for a 2-1 win.
