WICHITA FALLS, Texas – September 11, 2016 – A penalty kick by Midwestern State University at 39:48 was the difference maker Sunday afternoon as the Fort Lewis College women's soccer team lost a 1-0 decision in Wichita Falls, Texas.

"We did a good job in the second half," said head coach Jimmy Hall. "We put them on their heels and pressed them.  I don't think we came out strong enough in the first half.  We need to come out faster in the beginning."
 
The loss moves the Skyhawks to 1-2-1 overall while MSU improves to 2-1-2.
 
Both teams recorded 12 shots each.  Renee Terrell came off the bench to lead the Skyhawks with three shots.
 
Britt Blomso made five saves in 90 minutes between the posts.
 
After four straight road games, the Skyhawks will play their first home games Sept. 16 and 18 to open the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference season.  The Skyhawks will play host to Colorado State-Pueblo on Friday at 12:30 p.m., followed by Sunday's match at noon against New Mexico Highlands University.
