CLINTON, S.C. – The Wofford women’s soccer team was defeated 1-0 by Presbyterian College on Thursday night at Martin Stadium. Despite outshooting the Blue Hose 11-7 in the game, the Terriers were unable to score.

Wofford is 1-6 on the season, while the Blue Hose move to 3-4. The lone goal in the game was scored by PC’s Morgan Fragapane.
