Seton Hall women’s soccer (5-8-1) suffered a tough defeat, 2-1, on Sunday afternoon away against conference rival Butler Bulldogs (9-5-2).
The Pirates looked to continue their success after notching their first in-conference victory against Xavier, 1-0, at home on Oct. 9. Butler, on the other hand, entered the game against Seton Hall with a chip on its shoulder having lost three straight matches prior to Sunday.
It did not take long for the scoring to start between the Pirates and Bulldogs. Butler tallied the first point of the competition when sophomore forward Jamison Midgley struck from 10 yards out to put the Bulldogs ahead, 1-0.
