Herd Women’s Soccer Start Season with Draw Against High Point
The Marshall University women’s soccer team (0-0-1) rallied late for a 2-2 draw against High Point (0-0-1) in its season opener on Thursday night at Hoops Family Field.
“You don’t end games with a point or a win very often when you go down a goal twice,” Marshall women’s soccer head coach Michael Swan said after the match. “Typically you fight so hard to get back into it you crumble. Tonight we didn’t crumble. I couldn’t be prouder of the group.”
Herd goalkeeper Regan Meyer stopped the opening shot on goal by Panthers forward Emily Mashinski in the 18th minute. However, Skyler Prillaman struck first as HPU took a 1-0 lead at the 25:42 mark.
