Women’s Soccer Earns 2-1 Win at Presbyterian

CLINTON, S.C. — Wildcat freshmen Charlotte Snead and Lilly Lovell scored in the second half Sunday and led the Davidson women’s soccer team to a 2-1 victory at Presbyterian.

The Wildcats, now 1-0-1, scored just more than 15 minutes apart to first tie and then overtake the Blue Hose.

“Very proud of the girls for the comeback road victory,” said coach Adam Denton. “We responded well with the equalizer from Charlotte Snead, followed by what was the game-winner by Lilly Lovell. It was a tough second half with both teams creating chances; however, we have to learn from our last two performances. We had good periods of play, but didn’t have anything to show on the scoreboard and started the second half conceding early goals. This is something that we have got to continue to work on as we work through the season.”

Snead’s goal came in the 53rd minute, evening the match at 1-1 after Presbyterian’s Kori Lawrence scored in the 47th minute. Then Lovell scored the game-winner on an assist from Katy Talotta in the 68th minute to put the Wildcats ahead for good.

The Wildcats finished with a 5-3 shots-on-goal advantage, with Rachel Schleicher, Remi White and Riley Patton also putting shots on frame.
