Mounties drop home opener to St. FX
(SACKVILLE, NB) The Mounties Women's Soccer Team hosted their first regular season game with the St. FX X-Women in town on Saturday afternoon. The final score would favour the opposing team with a 5-0 win.
St. FX quickly got things started with some early 1st half goals courtesy of Brynn Jurus (Ancaster, ON) and a brace from Meghan Cole (Moncton, NB). The strong winds did not impact the X-Women stout defense as the back line held firm and produced many turnovers.
Mounties Head Coach Gene Ouellette attempted to shake things up with a couple of early substitutions but ultimately the Mounties could not solve the X-Women backend.
St. FX would add one more goal in the 2nd half and take the win by a score of 5-0.
Mount Allison (0-2-1) is back in action tomorrow at 1 p.m. as they host the Saint Mary's Huskies.
St. FX (2-1-0) for their part will travel to UPEI for a 1 p.m. tilt.
