FORT MYERS (Aug. 22, 2019) - The FIU women's soccer team fell to Florida Gulf Coast on Thursday night, as a pair of goals by Marjorie Boilesen lifted the Eagles over the Panthers by a score of 2-0 in the season's opening match.
FGCU got on the board early in the first half after the Panthers were unable to stop an Eagle attack during the eighth minute. Boilesen hit the back of the net following a cross attempt that allowed Alyssa Abbondandolo to set up FGCU for its first goal of the season.
The Eagles wasted little time adding to their lead in the second period, as Boilesen booted another shot between the posts less than six minutes into the half.
