Women's Soccer Falls to Bloomsburg in Season Finale

Box Score
INDIANA, PA – The Crimson Hawks fought hard, and even held a tie for most of the second half, but two late goals by Bloomsburg put the game out of reach as IUP went on to lose 3-1. The loss came in the season finale for the Crimson Hawks as they celebrated Senior Day prior to the match.

It didn't take long for the action to get started as Bloomsburg scored the first goal just nine minutes into the game. The Huskies' Tara Huber found her own rebound and scored to put Bloomsburg up 1-0.

Both goalkeepers put up strong performances as each team continued to pile up shots. Each Team had seven shots in the first half, but Bloomsburg's defense stepped up in the second half and held IUP to just two shots.

Just two minutes into the second half IUP was able to tie the game. Brittney Kuhns (Middleburg, Pa. /Midd-West) took a pass from Kelsey Fisher (Selinsgrove/Selinsgrove) and shot the ball off the post and into the lower corner of the net to tie the score at 1-1. Fisher was credited with an assist on the play.

The score remained at a standstill until the 70th minute when Bloomsburg was able to score off of a free kick. Huber scored her second goal of the game off of a deflection to put the Huskies up 2-1. The play was assisted by Kyleigh Reckage and Lauren Kreglow.

Bloomsburg was able to put the game out of reach just a few minutes later with their third goal. In the 77th minute, Kelsey Holtz shot from the right corner and put the ball just over goalkeeper Mara Hricik (Moon Twp./Moon)'s hand to put the Huskies up 3-1.

IUP finishes the season with a record of 9-8-1 and a Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference record of 7-8-1. The Crimson Hawks honored their 12 seniors prior to the match.
