WSOC battles to a tie against Wake Forest -- The weekend ahead -- FRIDAY CARDINAL COUPLE
CARDS, DEACS GO SCORELESS THURSDAY NIGHT
( If you were expecting Worldwide Jeff's Friday column...sorry to report that he was called in for an emergency meeting at work this morning . Ol' Paulie steps up to the plate today and takes his stance in the batter' box...)
110 minutes of soccer is a long, grueling affair. Especially when neither team produces a goal. Such was the case Thursday night at Lynn Stadium...where the UofL women's soccer team and Wake Forest battled to a scoreless tie in double overtime.
Louisville had and excellent change to claim this one with three minutes remaining in the contest. In 30 seconds...Emina Ekic fired a shot that hit the crossbar. Allison Whitfield claimed the rebound and kicked a steamer that was deflected by a WFU defender. Finally, Alison Price gathered the block and sent one toward the cage...but just a tad too high and over the net.
Coach Karen Ferguson Dayes on the contest:
"I wouldn't use the word "frustrated" but I think we deserved to win tonight. We created enough chances. The game turned, which I thought was in our favor and I though it was more in our favor through the overtimes. I'm going back to watch the replay. I want to see if Ekic's shot crossed the line."
Louisville had nine shots on goal. Wake Forest four. Cardinal goalie Gabby Kouzelos turned all four Wake attempts away. Credit to Deacs net-guarder Lindsay Preston with eight saves. Attacker Bayley Feist was a constant thorn in the Cards side with half of her teams eight shots.
There were also a total of 12 offsides called in the contest. The most I've ever seen in a college soccer guys. What did they do...hire college football reps to call this one? It was almost comical.
The Cards go to 9-6-1 with the draw. They currently sit in eighth place in the conference standings with ten points and a 3-4-1 ACC record.
Next up...the Cards travel to North Carolina to end the regular season against North Carolina on Sunday and North Carolina State for a Thursday match. If they qualify, they'd participate in ACC Women's Soccer Tournament action beginning November 3rd.
