Easton, Pa. -- The Seton Hall women's soccer team searched for the equalizer and possessed the ball for most of the second half but the Pirates ultimately came up short as they fell to Lafayette, 1-0, on Thursday evening.
Natalie Tavana (Middletown, Conn.) had a game-high four shots and two shots on goal for the Pirates (3-4-1).
How It Happened
Lafayette scored in the 16th minute in what was a strong first half for the Leopards, where the finished with a 3-1 edge in shots. The lone shot of the half for The Hall was Camryn Williams (Doylestown, Pa.) in the 24th minute.
Lafayette put up the first shot of the second half but it would be the only attempt that the Seton Hall defense would allow the rest of the way. Tavana would take the Pirates' next three shots and two were on target but none of them could find the back of the net. The Hall finished with a 5-2 advantage in shots in the second stanza and their final shot on goal came from sophomore Gia Milano (Scotch Plains, N.J.), whose strike from outside the box hit the cross bar. Phoebe Hampson (Cheshire, England) followed the miss with a shot attempt of her own but she wasn't able to put enough behind it to score.
Tavana, senior Chiara Pucci (Munich, Germany) and freshman Kylie Ray (Ramsey, N.J.) played the full 90 minute for The Hall.
