Western Kentucky's women's soccer team closed its 2017 non-conference slate Sunday with a 1-0 loss against Samford.
The Bulldogs (2-5-1) took an early lead in the sixth minute on a headed effort by Jermaine Seoposenwe off a corner kick, and WKU (3-4) had to search for an equalizer for the next 84 minutes while facing the one-goal deficit. The Lady Toppers nearly pulled even with several chances in the second half, but could not overcome the early hole.
In goal, WKU's Allison Leone finished the match with seven saves, her second-most in a single match this season, and played the full 90 minutes for the Lady Toppers.
