KUA falls in back and forth battle, 3-2

The Wildcats traveled to Proctor Academy for a night time matchup between league rivals. KUA struck first when Merrill Doherty found the near post on a long, low shot past the Proctor keeper. Sophie Braver made two outstanding saves in the first half to send the visiting team into the break with a 1-0 lead. Proctor tied the score midway through the second off a cross, and followed shortly afterward to take the lead. Doherty found herself on the penalty mark and tallied her second goal of the game and a 2-2 tie with time running out on both teams. Back and forth action at both ends wound down the game and, unfortunately for KUA, Proctor found the next and final back of the net to win the game 3-2. It was an evenly fought contest with tremendous heart, soul, and talent on both sides of the field. KUA (1-2) continues at home next Saturday against St Paul's.
