KUA wins opener, 1-0
The Wildcats opened the 2020 season with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Tilton. Despite an early advantage in ball possession, the home team found little gaps in the Tilton defense until Mo McBride hit the post in the 25th minute. This near-chance gave the KUA offense confidence and, in the 33rd minute, Emily Pariseau scored on a direct kick.
KUA continued to press and move players forward, though Tilton handled the pressure with strength and counter-attacks of their own. Both teams pressed to start the second half, but the Wildcat defense stood strong and limited a dangerous Tilton front line from finding the equalizer. At the other end, May Lillie hit the crossbar in her bid to provide KUA the insurance goal.
KUA (1-0) plays 8 games this season.
