Quick Hits About and From the Game:
•This was the 30th meeting all-time, and first since 2013, between both school's women's soccer program's.
•Despite the setback, Davidson still holds a 19-10-1 lead in the all-time series.

•Davidson's program is beginning its 30th year of women's soccer and has 250 wins all-time.
•The lone goal of the game came at the 40:15 mark from the Eagle's Frida Brattum, her first of the season.
•Hannah Smith earned an assist on the play.
•The game was fairly even across the board with the Wildcats hold a slim 13-12 edge on shots and GSU having a 3-2 edge on corner kicks.
•Of the 'Cats' 13 shots, six of them went on frame, but the Georgia Southern keeper stopped five of the shots.
•Sydney Simmons had a team-high three shots.
•Junior Sarah L'Hommedieu started in goal for Davidson and finished with three saves.
Notes from Coach Denton on the Road
"Mental error late in the first half was a huge factor in the game. To concede on a long ball was very disappointing on our end. We created opportunities through the game, but we needed to be more clinical. We have to keep working and believing, and work towards getting something for our next match up on Friday vs. UNCG. It's also Senior night, which is also always a special night and we are looking forward to celebrating our seniors with a positive performance on Friday."
Davidson comes home for a Senior Night game vs. UNCG this coming Friday, Sept. 7, at 7 p.m.
