Arkansas made an uncharacteristically early exit from the SEC Soccer Tournament on Tuesday in Pensacola, Fla.
The ninth-ranked Razorbacks lost 5-4 in penalty kicks to Vanderbilt in the tournament quarterfinals. Arkansas failed to make the championship game of the tournament for the first time since 2015, when the Razorbacks did not qualify for the tournament.
Filling in for No. 1 starter Kate Devine, Vanderbilt goalkeeper Sara Wojdelko knocked away an attempt by Arkansas’ Jessica De Filippo to seal the win for the Commodores. Devine made a penalty kick moments before the save.
The teams were tied 1-1 after regulation and two 10-minute overtime periods.
