WHAT COACH WEBB IS SAYING
On a closely contested 1-0 loss at Lubbock Christian... "I thought we played really, really well. We gave up one good chance in the first half and they scored it. I thought we were dominant in possession and had some unbelievable opportunities late in the game. They had probably the best save I've seen at this level with no time left on the clock from one of our free kicks. I was really proud of us though, I thought we played hard. We had a long travel day, so to play like we did on the road in Lubbock, it was a good day for us. Unfortunately just didn't get the result that we needed."
On what's important for her team in the final stretch of the regular season... "Under adversity you see your character in everything that you do. We're under adversity right now and so our character has to come out. We're not going to stop competing, we're not going to stop working, and we're not going to stop loving each other. We're going to enjoy the race."
LAST TIME OUT
UT Tyler women's soccer conceded an early goal but gave the Lady Chaps all they could handle as the comeback effort fell just short. It was the first loss for the Patriots since September 20
th against St. Mary's and just the second match without a result in LSC play this season. The two teams got off to a stalemate start, as neither side found much footing through the first six minutes. Just under two minutes later however, the Lady Chaps struck as they scored at the 7:44 mark of the game with a goal that found the top right of the net to make it 1-0 in their favor. The Patriots over the final 20 minutes of action would put up a trio of shots, as Garner again forced the Lady Chaps keeper to make a save.
Alexia Moreira would put up her own shot seconds later, but it was blocked before it could get on net. One last gasp came in the final minute of play, as the Patriots earned a free kick in an advantageous spot and handed the ball to Moreira for the chance. She struck a shot that found the bottom left of the net, but again the Lady Chaps keeper held her line and held off the final gasp for the Patriots. For the Patriots,
Alexia Moreira led the way with three total shots and one on goal.
Sydnee Garner came up with two shots with both going on goal. Three other Patriots recorded a shot on the day.
