Women's soccer season ends with loss in SoCon Tournament

Box Score DAVIDSON, N.C. -- Two goals in the first half was all host and No. 2 seed Davidson needed to hold back an attempted second half rally by No. 7 seed Wofford for a 2-1 victory Sunday afternoon in quarterfinal round action of the Southern Conference Tournament at Alumni Stadium in Davidson, N.C.

The Terriers, who were held to just two shots at the half - both coming from freshman Daniella Fatti - doubled their total in the second 45 minutes in an effort to tie the game. Wofford (7-11-2) did crack the shutout Bevin English had when junior Mary Rea fed sophomore Kendra Merchant, who beat English on a one-on-one situation at 75:07.

Davidson (14-4-1) received its first goal of the game at 6:07 when Lauren Conner sent a long through ball to Blakely Low. Low then placed the ball in the upper left corner past Terrier goalkeeper Katie McChesney.

The Wildcats then added to their lead at 24:37 as Allison Drutchas passed the ball to Kyri Bye-Nagel on the left side of the 18-yard box. Bye-Nagel then shot back across the goal mouth to the far post for the score.

With the conclusion of the season, Wofford says goodbye to seniors Kara Bennewitz, Kelly Broderick, Natalie Ferrara, Rachel Hyatt and Whitney Steelman. Steelman finished the campaign as the team's leading scorer with five goals and 12 points. She concludes her career ranked among the program's all-time top 10 for goals scored (t-6th/16), assists (t-6th/14), points (6th/46), shots (5th/155) and game-winning goals (t-10th/3).

McChesney, despite playing just one season with the Terriers, already is listed fourth in school history for saves (102) and minutes played (1842:48), fifth for goals against average (1.56) and tied for fifth in shutouts (six).
