Soccer Falls 3-0 to Oral Roberts

ITTA BENA, Miss. --- The Mississippi Valley State University women's soccer team dropped their season opener to the Golden Eagles of Oral Roberts, 3-0.
 
MVSU (0-1-0) played an intense first half, conceding only one goal during the first 45 minutes.
 
Head Coach N.  Fabio Boateng said, "It was a tough first game. We played against a quality Oral Roberts team and I think the first half of the game plan worked, for the most part, until a lapse in concentration in the last five minutes of the half."
 
The Golden Eagles scored their first goal in the 39th minute of the first half, then added another in the 51st minute on a pass in front of the net. The final goal was scored at the 77:12 mark, sealing the 3-0 for the home team.
 
The Devilettes will return to home sweet home, Itta Bena, Mississippi, for the home opener on Sunday, August 23 at 3:00 p.m. against Southeastern Louisiana University Lady Lions.
 
"We need to get a response on Sunday against a good team in Southeastern Louisiana," stated Boateng.
