Women’s Soccer Drops Heart Breaker to Caldwell, 3-2


BOX SCORE

Philadelphia, Pa. -
The Holy Family University women's soccer team dropped its first Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) contest of the season as Caldwell College scored three unanswered goals in the second half to defeat the Tigers, 3-2, Saturday afternoon at Tiger Field.

Holy Family is now 1-2-0 overall and 0-1-0 in the CACC, while Caldwell improves to 1-2-0 overall and 1-0-0 in conference action.  The win marked Caldwell's first ever victory against Holy Family as the Tigers won the series first 13 match ups. 

Junior Megan Tole (Philadelphia, Pa./Archbishop Ryan) tallied the game's first goal as she scored on a breakaway pass from senior Dawn Curry (Pennsville, N.J/Pennsville) to give Holy Family a 1-0 lead.  Tole's second goal of the season came in the 26th minute.

The Tigers would go ahead and double their lead when senior Amanda Trabosh (Washington Twp., N.J./Gloucester Catholic) scored her first goal of the season in the 41st minute to make the score 2-0. 

Holy Family entered halftime with the two-goal advantage as the Tigers outshot Caldwell, 10-3, in the half. 

With just over a minute gone by in the second half, Caldwell freshman Natalie Migoya scored her first collegiate goal to cut the Holy Family lead in half.  Her goal in the 47th minute made the score 2-1.

Two minutes later Caldwell struck again to tie the game at 2-2.  This time it was senior Giana Scerbo scoring her first goal of the season off a pass from freshman Ashlee Paknis in the 49th minute. 

The game remained tied until the 87th minute when Migoya scored her second goal of the game to give Caldwell its first lead of the game by the score of 3-2.

The Cougars were able to hold on to the lead through the final three minutes of play to pick up the victory.

Senior goalkeeper Gina Mansi (Washington Twp., N.J./Washington Twp. ) made four saves in net for Holy Family, while junior Kristina Cabales came through with five for Caldwell.

Holy Family is back in action on Wednesday, September 14 as the Tigers host New York Tech in a non-conference contest.  Game time is slated for 4 p.m.
