SPARTANBURG, S.C. – The Wofford women's soccer team fell to UNC Asheville, 2-1, in their home opener on Wednesday night.

The Terriers fell behind 2-0 in the second half before Katie Beuerlein trimmed the deficit to one with a final minute goal. Beuerlein's goal was her first of the season after scoring twice a year ago.

The Wofford defense held steady in the first half, thanks to two outstanding saves by goalkeeper Alex Carroll (0-3-0). The Terriers also owned an advantage in corner kicks (2-1).

However, UNC Asheville broke the scoreless tie in the 70^th minute after Caroline Houser's corner kick made its way to the front of the net and was put away by Ellie Stone. Then, four minutes later the Bulldogs added another goal off a Houser corner that was put away by Stone.

The Terriers fought back, as Beuerlein's 90^th minute goal closed the gap to one, but it there was not enough time for Wofford to equalize before time expired.

Despite the loss, Wofford outshot the Bulldogs in the second half, 9-7. In addition, the Terriers nine second half shot attempts were a team high in a half this season.
Individually, Hayley Younginer, Emma Fletcher, and Hannah Washko tied for the team lead with three shots attempted each.

Up next, Wofford will travel to Davidson to play Sunday at 2 P.M.
