Buena Vista, VA – The Southern Virginia women's soccer team fell 1-3 to the Eagles of Bridgewater College on Tuesday evening.

The Knights came out aggressive, with Natalie Blaser and Xoie Warner applying early pressure before Courtney Montes capitalized on a pass from Delin Peterson to score in the 11th minute and give Southern Virginia a 1-0 lead.

Bridgewater responded with an equalizer after back-to-back saves from Beth Manwill, leveling the match at 1-1. The Eagles kept the pressure on and broke through again before halftime, converting off a corner kick scramble to take a 2-1 advantage.

Southern Virginia looked to regain momentum after the break, but Bridgewater extended the lead with a goal in the 61st minute, sealing the 3-1 result.

The Eagles held a 20-7 edge in shots and a 5-0 advantage in corner kicks. Warner led the Knights with two shots, while Manwill tallied seven saves in goal.
