Pirates Suffer Heartbreaking Defeat to Schreiner in Final Minutes

GEORGETOWN - The Southwestern University women's soccer suffered a tough 2-1 loss to the Schreiner Mountaineers on Friday evening at Varsity Field on the campus of SU. The Mountaineers got a pair of goals in the final five minutes to pick up the victory.

The Mountaineers had a 22-5 advantage in shots including 9-1 in corner kicks. However, the Pirates took the early lead in the 17th minutes as junior Kierstyn Luckock lofted one into the back of the net on an assist from sophomore Romie Reyna.

The Pirates took that advantage into the break and throughout most of the second half as the defense held strong to keep the lead.

However, the Mountaineers got goals in the 86th and 87th minutes to take a 2-1 lead and stun the Pirates for the road win.

Luckock's goal was her first of the season while Reyna's assist was her first of the year. Senior Kylie Hunt finished with six saves in net.

Southwestern falls to 0-7 on the season and 0-4 in SCAC play. They will look to bounce back on Sunday as they will take on No. 10 Trinity at 12 PM.
