We suffered a tough loss on Saturday afternoon as we fell to St. Mary's College 1-0.
I thought the game could have gone either way. Both teams played well and were pretty evenly matched throughout the contest. Our offense preformed much better, but a post and few good saves by the keeper kept us off the score sheet and was enough to lead St. Mary's to victory.
St. Mary's got their game winner late in the first half when we left a man open on a corner kick and he was able to get a head on it and put it towards the corner passed the out-stretched arms of our goalkeeper.
I was pleased with our performance overall and thought we did some good things with our movement off the ball and our possession in the attacking third. We still need to fine tune a little more to make sure we have the consistency needed to compete with the top teams as we head into the next two weeks.
Mary Washington will be in town tomorrow night for our third conference game of the season. It's too early to start talking playoff scenarios, but getting the three points would be crucial after dropping points this past Saturday.
