Lady Lions learn a valuable lesson on the road

September 20, 2022

Waxahachie, TX: A non-conference game between Southwestern Assemblies of God University (SAGU) Lady Lions and the McMurry University (MCM) War Hawks took place on the Wilford Moore Stadium FieldTurf. Grace Singleton, a sophomore defender for the Warhawks, was selected for the ASC Player to Watch list. The Lions' offensive assault had a massive challenge since Singleton, the true freshman, played significant minutes in nine shutouts, starting nine of the final ten games during McMurry's 2021 season.

 

Lions Review

  • In the first half of the game, the Lady Lions' superior defensive rotations drove the War Hawks into offside errors. 

  • War Hawk goalie G. Singleton would live up to her ASC distinction when Shakira Williams shed a McMurry defender to allow an opening for a chance on goal. 

  • Valeria Olivas Maldonado would drop corner kicks from the sky to provide Alexis Roman the chance to punt a goal into the goal. 

  • Jordan Shelton would fill in and quickly establish her presence with her superb footwork and passing. 

  • The War Hawks led 1-0 at the break, thanks to a goal from K. Moore. 

  • Sampa Chisanga's aggressive play in the second quarter of play forced a McMurry team effort to prevent a shot.

  • M. Standifer's multi-goal effort helped the War Hawks win 3-0 in the end. 

 

Paul's Pondering

"We played a very fit, physical, and disciplined opponent, which was an eye-opening "Welcome to Collegiate Soccer" orientation for our newcomers. We discussed our objective for the second half, and I'm proud of the team's turn-around performance with our intentional desire to win 50/50 balls. The final result was based on which team capitalized on the other team's errors," SAGU women's soccer head coach Paul Hason commented.

The Lady Lions' road trip continues on Saturday, September 24, as they take on Southwestern Adventist University in Keene, Texas.
