Women’s Soccer Drops Tough Road Contest to Arkansas State

JONESBORO, Ark. --- The Mississippi Valley State University women's soccer team dropped a Sunday afternoon road contest to the Red Wolves of Arkansas State University, 4-0.
 
MVSU (1-4-0) played a strong first half, with Goalie Rita Gyasi holding the Red Wolves to no goals.
 
Head Coach N.  Fabio Boateng stated, "We need to be consistent as a team. The performance wasn't good enough. We conceded goals I thought were cheap and we can't do that at this level."
 
The second half proved to be the Devilettes Achilles heal, as they conceded four goals. With 61:48 remaining Jordan Adams scored the first goal for Arkansas State. Yayedior Mbengue scored on a throw in in front of the goal at the 69:46 mark. In the 71st  minute, the Red Wolves scored on a header from Katherince Padgett. The final goal of the contest came at 77:13 from Katey Carmichael.
 
Gyasi recorded nine saves, including a brilliant save on a penalty kick in the first half. Ernestina Abambila, Paxton Rodocker and Nykosi Simmons each recorded one shot, with Simmons being a shot on goal. Karenth Zabala recorded two shots and one on goal.
 
The Devilettes return home to Itta Bena, Mississippi, to host the Lady Statesmen of Delta State University on September 11 at 7:00 p.m.
