Tuesday, November 03, 2009 - New Castle, DE

The fifth-seeded Lady Wildcats of Wilmington University saw their 2009 season come to an end at the hands of the fourth-seeded Tigers of Holy Family University on Tuesday afternoon. Holy Family defeated the ‘Cats, 1-0 in the opening round of the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) women’s soccer tournament.

The Tigers scored the game’s lone goal during the 12th minute when Lindsay Fisher played a beautiful corner kick into the box, where Dawn Curry headed it into the center of the goal, giving the hosts the 1-0 lead. That would be the only goal of the game, and Holy Family held on to advance into the semifinals on Thursday afternoon.

Wilmington was out-shot by a 15-13 margin, and Holy Family held a convincing 11-1 edge in corner kicks. Freshman Brook Eveler (4-4-1) recorded three saves in goal for the Wildcats, while Gina Mansi had five saves in the win for Holy Family.

Following the game, Wilmington ended their season with a 9-7-2 record, while the Tigers improved to 11-8-1 on the year, and advanced to take on the top-seeded Rams of Philadelphia University in a semifinal matchup on Thursday at 11:00 at the Kirkwood Soccer Complex.
