Evansville defense shows strength in 1-0 exhibition loss at SLU

ST. LOUIS - Allowing an early goal, the University of Evansville women's soccer team held the scoreline, giving itself a chance, in a 1-0 exhibition loss to Saint Louis on Saturday night in St. Louis, Mo.

Much like the two sides' last meeting, the Aces conceded an early goal in the ninth minute, but then held firm defensively, taking chances to equalize as they came, before ultimately falling to the Billikens.

Both Aces keepers showed well between the posts as junior Lauren Fischer made three stops on the night in the first half and freshman Sophia Lindner stopped all four shots she faced in the second half.
