First Half Surge Lifts Lady Monarchs over Marshall 2-1

A pair of first-half goals and strong defensive play throughout made difference on Thursday evening when the Old Dominion women’s soccer team defeated Marshall University 2-1 in the regular season finale. The Lady Monarchs came into the finale with a 6-8-2 (4-4-1 Sun Belt) off a 1-0 road victory against Georgia State on Sunday afternoon, while the Herd came in with a 3-8-5 (2-4-3 Sun Belt) record.

It did not take long for the ODU offense to find its stride as they put pressure on their opponent early.
