DC Holds its Own, But Brockport Pulls Away For Win

DEFIANCE, Ohio – The Lady Jacket soccer team gave it's all in the match with the College of Brockport Golden Eagles, but the talented New York squad wore DC down and scored three goals in the second half to head home with a victory.

The loss drops Defiance to 0-1-1 on the year, while Brockport keeps its record perfect at 2-0.

DC played very well in the first half as they were toe-to-toe with the Golden Eagles. Brockport registered seven shots to Defiance's five with time of possession being relatively equal.

However, the second half turned into a different story as Brockport took complete control and pressured the Yellow Jackets throughout the remainder of the game. A handball by DC in the box led to a penalty kick goal that gave the Golden Eagles the lead at 1-0.

Defiance couldn't recover as they were unable to notch a single shot in the second half as they were playing on their side of the field the entire time. With the Lady Jackets wearing down in the last minutes of the match, Brockport punched in two goals to seal the game with a 3-0 victory.

DC looks to grab its first win of the year when they travel down to Marietta, Ohio on Saturday, September 7.  They will be matched up against Bethany College. The game is set to begin at 3 p.m.
