CONWAY, S.C. – The Wofford women’s soccer team improved to 3-1-0 on the season with a road victory over the Chanticleers of Coastal Carolina (2-3-0) Sunday afternoon.  The Terriers were led by junior Maggie Bosley and sophomore Annika Jansson who each scored their first career goals.
 
Wofford controlled the majority of the first half, but fell behind when Camille Christie scored on a 35 yard free kick in the 13th minute.  Terrrier keeper, Erika Christensen, misplayed the ball and it bounced off her hands and into the top left corner of the goal.  Wofford would respond and tie the game in the 35th minute when Annika Jansson and Chelsea Turner assisted on Maggie Bosley’s goal.  Jannson played the ball across the 18 yard box to Turner, who laid the ball off to Bosley, who fired a shot past Chanticleer keeper Megan Spencer into the top corner.
 
The first half ended with the score 1-1, and Coastal Carolina held the edge in shots (5-3) and corners (1-0).  Kara Boggs replaced Christensen in goal for the second half for Wofford.  Christensen allowed one goal on five shots faced.
 
The second half was back and forth as both teams tried to create good scoring chances.  It looked like the game was headed for overtime, when Wofford took the lead in the 85th minute when Maureen Buff assisted on Jansson’s game-winning goal.  Buff played a through ball to Jansson, who took one touch before firing the ball with her left foot past Spencer into the bottom right corner of the net.
 
Kara Boggs earned the victory for the Terriers and improves to 1-0-0 on the season.  She made one save on 5 shots faced in 45 minutes of action.  Megan Spencer gets the loss and falls to 2-3-0 on the year.  She made four saves on ten shots faced.
