@ERAUWSoccer Tops Daytona State 1-0 in Exhibition Match

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – The Embry-Riddle women's soccer team wrapped up its preseason slate with a 1-0 win over Daytona State, Sunday in front of a capacity crowd at the Embry-Riddle Soccer Stadium.
 
First half statistics showed the Eagles with a 5-3 edge in shots over the Falcons, and the Blue and Gold controlled much of the possession in the first 45 minutes of action.
 
The Eagles did not record a shot on frame in the opening stanza, but sophomore Guro Naess Berge opened the second period that forced DSC goalkeeper Kristina Shores to come up with a save less than three minutes into the half.
 
In the 54th minute, Andrea Froshaug received the ball about 25 yards from the goal and took the ball into the box where she was brought down by a Falcon defender. Naess Berge took the resulting penalty kick and gave the Eagles the only score they needed to come away with the win.
 
The Eagles officially open the 2016 campaign at home at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday when they host Armstrong State at the Embry-Riddle Soccer Stadium.
