The Pitt women’s soccer team hosted No. 19 Virginia Tech at Ambrose Urbanic Field on Saturday night hoping to extend its run of success after a 2-0 win over Miami. But instead, the team suffered a 2-1 defeat.
The Hokies struck first, as Virginia Tech midfielder Emily Gray found the back of the net after corralling a loose ball that popped free after a collision between Pitt goalkeeper Katherine Robinson and Pitt defender Kate McKay in the 15th minute. Pitt would be unable to respond in the remaining half-hour of the first half, leaving the score 1-0 at halftime.
