Redshirt senior Kenadie Carlson scores in 1-0 win
RICHMOND, Ky. – Xavier women's soccer came away from its lone exhibition with a win, topping Eastern Kentucky, 1-0, on Sunday afternoon.
"EKU was a great challenge for our team, and a great chance to see where we stand going into the regular season," said head coach Nate Lie. "I was thrilled for Kenadie (Carlson) to breakthrough with a goal after sitting out last season with injury. We had a great opportunity to get all 28 available players out on the field in a match situation and everyone stayed healthy."
The match, which consisted of three 30-minute periods without official stats, remained scoreless until the 55-minute mark when redshirt senior Kenadie Carlson broke the scoreless draw.
The Musketeers held the Colonels scoreless to close out the second period and the final 30-minutes was scoreless on both sides to give Xavier the unofficial 1-0 win.
Xavier begins regular season on Friday, August 17 as the Musketeers host Toledo at 7:00 p.m.
