The Troy soccer team kicked off the 2018 season last Thursday, downing Jacksonville 2-0 before falling to No. 10 Florida State on the road Sunday.

The Trojans (1-1, 0-0 Sun Belt) scored the first goal of the 2018 campaign in the 25th minute against the Dolphins. Junior midfielder Maddie Brune made a play off a deflected corner kick to snag the team’s first of two goals of the day.

The second of these came late in the 51st minute. Junior forward Kate Lorenz picked up her first assist of the year on what was nearly her first goal of the year.
