Philadelphia Lone Star teams come up short in WPSL and NPSL conference finals

The playoff runs for Philadelphia Lone Star’s NPSL and WPSL teams both came to an end on a rainy Saturday night in New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

Philadelphia Lone Star Women ended their inaugural season with a 2-1 loss to local rivals Torch FC at Pennridge High School. After a scoreless first half, Lakin Walls put Torch up 1-0 in the 61st minute but Lone Star responded with an equalizer from Drexel midfielder Natalie Pantalone (Williamstown, N.J.), assisted by Emily McNesby (Chalfont, Pa.), in the 75th.

With timing running out on regulation, Allison Scott scored the winner for Torch FC off an assist from Douglassville, Pa.
