Zips Take Lone Exhibition Match Over St. Francis, 3-1
AKRON, Ohio – Behind the strength of 29 shots including 13 on goal resulting in a trio of goals, the Zips women's soccer team defeated St. Francis (Pa.), 3-1, in Akron's lone exhibition contest of the 2016 pre-season at First Energy Stadium- Cub Cadet Field, Sunday afternoon.
"Nice opportunity to give the players a run out and get back out of the field against an opponent," said head coach Noreen Herlihy. "It's still early so we won't get carried away, but with so many new players there was definitely some positives to take from it."
All 22 available players on Sunday saw playing time for the Zips throughout the contest including eight of the 11 newest additions to the 2016 roster.
