Panthers Fall to Eagles in SSC Title Game

INSIDE THE MATCHUP:
Final: Florida Tech 0, #14 Embry-Riddle 1
Records: Florida Tech (10-3-5) | Embry-Riddle (10-3-3)
Locations: ERAU Soccer Stadium | Daytona Beach, Fla.

STATS OF THE MATCH: 
  • ERAU jumped out to an early 1-0 advantage on a goal by Marie Myhrvold Seim just 4:57 into the game. 
  • Tech had a chance to tie the game in the 10th minute as a shot by Marem Ndiongue rang off the crossbar and bounced to Mariana Mazzocca right in front of the Eagles' net. However, Mazzocca's shot was stopped by ERAU goalkeeper Oona Jokinen as she kept her team ahead by one. 
  • Panthers held possession on the offensive half for a majority of the remaining time in the first half and went into halftime with an edge in shots (6-4) and corner kicks (2-1)
  • ERAU controlled the pace of play in the second half, while the Eagles defense tightened up and didn't allow the Panthers to get a good opportunity on goal. 
  • Time would eventually run out on the Panthers as they were handed just their third loss of the season. 
  • ERAU ended the contest with more shots 11-9, while both teams had four shots on goal. Tech earned more corner kicks 4-2. 
  • Mayara Queiroz Reis led Tech with five shots in the game, placing two on goal. Ndiongue had two shots with one on goal and Mazzocca had a shot on goal. 
  • Maria Sanchez Recuero finished with three saves while Jokinen had four stops in the game for the Eagles. 
 
BEYOND THE BOXSCORE:
  • Florida Tech moves to 1-2 in Sunshine State Conference title game appearances. 
  • The loss ends the Panthers' unbeaten streak at 10 games. It was Tech's first defeat since dropping a 1-0 decision to Nova Southeastern on Oct. 2. Panthers were 7-0-3 over that 10-game span. 
  • Following the conclusion of the championship game, JoJo Michaels, Marem Ndiongue, Maria Sanchez Recuero and Mayara Queiroz Reis were named to the SSC All-Tournament Team for their exceptional play over the three rounds.
