App State soccer records season’s first loss against Clemson

App State soccer ended its fifth match of the season with a 3-0 defeat at Clemson’s Historic Riggs Field. The defeat against the Tigers signals the break in the Mountaineers’ undefeated record this season.

The difficulties for first year head coach Aimee Haywood’s side began early with the match delayed nearly three hours due to two rain delays. These tough conditions were reflected in a rough match for the Black and Gold.

The Tigers’ performance can only be characterized as fast, aggressive and unforgiving. Clemson recorded 32 total shots on goal with the side’s first chance coming three minutes into the match.
