PENSACOLA, Fla, (September 9, 2012) - No. 16
Rollins just couldn't break through Sunday afternoon, falling to
the 20th ranked North Georgia Saints, 1-0.
The Saints forward Sophia Matonak scored the game's only goal
with a shot that flew past a diving Mary Spring.
The Tars put relentless pressure on the Saints all afternoon
after falling behind early, even outshooting North Georgia 20-7,
but just couldn't find the equalizer.
Rollins' best chance came in the 38th minute when senior Ali Schrader collected a pass at the top corner
of the box and ripped a shot headed just under the crossbar.
Unfortunately for the Tars, Saints keeper Mallory Sayre was able to
get a fingertip on it and deflect it off the crossbar and up over
the net.
The Tars will be back in action Wednesday, Sept. 12 when they
play host to Eckerd. Kickoff is set for 5 p.m. Fans can follow
