WOMEN’S SOCCER

The Huntington women’s soccer team took one on the chin Saturday night to suffer their second road loss to a WHAC opponent in as many days. This time it was a 2-0 decision to Aquinas College.

HU has gotten the best of the Saints the last two seasons, both times by a score of 1-0.

Aquinas controlled play most of the night but it wasn’t until the second half that they cashed in on that possession. After playing to a 0-0 deadlock through the opening 45 minutes, the Saints found back netting in the 55th minute and then again in the 64th minute for a two-goal advantage that proved permanent.

Burge’s crew finished with four shots, two on frame. Autumn Demott took the loss in goal. The senior keeper collected seven saves.

Next up for Huntington (1-5) is a road trip to Lourdes on Tuesday at 6:00 p.m.
