Night Hawks Fall to No. 5 Mobile

THOMASVILLE, Ga. – The Thomas University women's soccer team fell to No. 5 Mobile, 3-1, Saturday in the finale of The Sun Conference/Southern States Challenge at the TU Soccer Complex.

The Night Hawks fell to 1-6-0 on the season, while the Rams improved to 5-2-1 on the year. TU opens Sun Conference play against Florida Memorial University 4:30 p.m. Friday at the TU Soccer Complex.

"After this weekend, it shows a lot about us as a program and a lot about where we are as a team," TU coach Julie Orlowski said. "After a tough battle with the No. 6 team in the nation (William Carey), we come back and battle the No. 5 team. Mobile taking the ball to the corner at the end of the game speaks volumes about what we can accomplish in conference play."

Nikole Cruz scored all three goals for the Rams in the game. She netted the first goal of the game for Mobile in the 8th minute. The Rams took a 1-0 lead into the locker room.

Milene Anstett beat a defender on the left side, took the ball into the 18-yard box and delivered a pass across the goal. Kayla Folse headed the ball in and tied that game at 1-1 in the 50th minute, her fourth goal of the season.

Cruz struck again when Tyler-Rae Molloy played the ball behind the TU defense. Cruz collected the ball and scored the game winner in the 57th minute. Cruz completed the hat trick with an insurance goal in the 89th minute.

Kara Houston collected 10 saves in goal for the Night Hawks.

"Kara Houston make some key saves that kept us in the game and Milene Anstett continues to impress with her talent and heart," Orlowski said. "We have some issues to resolve, but we are looking forward to the second season."
