The FAU women’s soccer team (2-2-2) suffered a late 1-0 defeat in Fort Myers against the Florida Gulf Coast University Eagles (2-3-0) Sunday afternoon.

The Eagles came off a loss against the University of Central Florida (UCF) over the weekend, conceding three goals in Orlando. The Owls were the clear favorites to walk away with the three points due to their ability to create real attacking chances and to defend their net very well, as they have only conceded one goal since losing 4-0 to Alabama in the season opener.
