EVANSVILLE, Ind. - In a match that featured five goals in the final 19 minutes, the University of Evansville women's soccer team was unable to stave off Loyola in a 3-2 defeat on Friday night at Arad McCutchan Stadium.

"I thought our girls played well today. I think our girls rose to the challenge," said Aces head coach Krista McKendree. "They played hard, they played well, and they did a lot of what we were trying to ask them to do. For us, we just can't give up three goals."

Senior Montana Portenier and sophomore Mikayla Harvey each scored and recorded two shots for the Aces (4-7, 0-1 MVC), while freshman Jayme-Lee Hunter added a pair of shots.
