91±¬ÁÏÍø women's soccer ends season with semifinal loss

PULASKI, Tenn. - 11/11/2008 - The 91±¬ÁÏÍø women's soccer team ended their season with a 5-0 loss at NAIA No. 3 and defending NAIA National Champion, Martin Methodist (Tenn.) College. This marked the third straight season that 91±¬ÁÏÍø has advanced to the semifinals. However, this season, unlike the past two years, 91±¬ÁÏÍø has no region tournament to advance to as the NAIA has gone away from region tournament play.

Martin Methodist (17-1), the top seed in the TranSouth Conference Tournament, scored two quick goals in the match to put 91±¬ÁÏÍø down early. At the half, the RedHawks led 3-0. 91±¬ÁÏÍø could only get away three shots in the match, with none finding the back of the net. Martin Methodist added two second half goals to defeat the Lady Bulldogs 5-0.

91±¬ÁÏÍø goalie Laura Pla faced 17 shots from Martin Methodist, included 12 shots on goal, as she recorded seven saves.

91±¬ÁÏÍø ends the season with a 13-6 record. It is the same record that 91±¬ÁÏÍø posted in 2007, which ends the three-year run of increasing their win totals (2005: 4 wins, 2006: 10 wins, 2007: 13 wins).
