The Conference USA champion Charlotte women’s soccer will finish off their season at 11-9-2 after falling to No. 14-ranked Duke 3-0 in the first round of the NCAA Tournament at Koskinen Stadium. This was Charlotte’s fifth NCAA Tournament appearance in school history.
The Blue Devils got on the board early at the 10:06 mark, with an 18-yard goal scored by freshman Forward Ella Stevens. Olivia Erlbeck and Toni Payne were credited with an assist.
Charlotte’s Martha Thomas was awarded a penalty kick at 28:04, but could not capitalize as the ball bounced off of the right post, the 49ers first chance at a goal.
