App State women’s soccer fell short to No. 22 Texas Tech 2-1 Sunday in their first home loss of the season.
In their last non-conference match of the season, the Mountaineers were looking for an upset against a Red Raiders (6-1-1) team that has gone to the third round of the NCAA tournament each of the last four years.
The Mountaineers (5-3) ended the first half up 1-0 on a curving free kick after a foul on senior forward Jane Cline from outside the box by redshirt sophomore Sarah Peatross in the 44th minute, her second goal of the season after missing most of last season with an injury.
