WEEKEND ROUNDUP: Lady Owls go scoreless again; Olean, Salamanca XC take to Red Dragon Invitational

ERIE, PA – The Bradford girl’s soccer team fell back to 0.500 with their second shutout loss of the season, dropping at the hands of McDowell, 3-0.

In what would have been a stress test for a rebuilding squad, the Lady Owls were unable to find the back of the net, suffering their second loss of the season.

Starting in goal for Bradford, Maddy Stark came away with four saves while her replacement, Adeline Meyer ended with two.

WOMEN’S COLLEGE SOCCER

Cleveland State 1, St. Bonaventure 0

CLEVELAND, OH — After having held Cleveland State scoreless for a grand majority of the game, St. Bonaventure suffered a heart-breaking loss after conceding in the 88th minute.

The Vikings had the majority of offensive opportunities in the game, out-shooting the Bonnies by a 20-8 margin. Granted, just eight of those shots from the hosts wound up being on-target.

Mayra Sesmas was the difference-maker for Cleveland State as her low, driven shot found the bottom corner of the Bona net.

The goal was the only blemish on St. Bonaventure goalkeeper Juliana Castellano’s record, who made seven saves over the course of the contest to keep her side in it.
