Aces score first, but fall to Loyola Chicago, 3-1

EVANSVILLE - Despite opening the scoring in the match, the University of Evansville women's soccer team dropped the finale of a two-game homestand to Loyola Chicago, 3-1, on Wednesday afternoon at Arad McCutchan Stadium in Evansville.

Senior Emily Ormson increased her team lead in goals, scoring her fifth goal of the season in the 32nd minute. In goal, fifth-year senior Michaela Till made four saves on the evening.

Till was busy early, but held her ground in the opening half, stopping a pair of shots early in the match. Evansville found the scoreboard in the 32nd minutes off a free kick. Senior Alex Eyler took the free kick just inside the Ramblers half, looping it just into the box. The ball was headed up into the air by a Rambler and then bounced just outside of the box. Ormson approached the ball off the bounce and fired a volley past the keeper's right to give the Aces a 1-0 lead at the half.

Just past five minutes into the second half, Loyola answered as Megan Nemec found Megan Demski, who slipped it into the back of the net in the 51st minute. A great chance in the 65th minute for the Aces came as freshman Hailey Autenrieb got into the box and sent a shot on-goal that was saved by the Ramblers. In the 74th minute, the Ramblers went in front as Olivia Knab scored to give Loyola a 2-1 advantage. Closing-out the match, Sarah Noonan scored for the Ramblers in the 86th minute, assisted by Jenna Ross, as Loyola secured the 3-1 win.

Evansville hits the road for a pair of matches, beginning with a Saturday contest at Noon against Indiana State in Terre Haute, Indiana.
