With the score tied at 3 in a steady rain, CFCA went ahead as pressure on the offensive end produced an own goal by the visitors in the 75th minute. The hosts added a goal by Ella John Dupree on a corner kick by Gracie Byrd in the closing seconds

Byrd had two goals. Dupree and Alexis Crumlley had one goal each. Dupree, Byrd and Crumley contributed assists in the team’s fifth strraight win. CFCA improved to 6-3 overall and 4-2 in the SAC.

“While I’m always happy to have a win, I think we could have done better today,” said CFCA coach Michael Beslin. “The girls faced a lot of challenges — a late kickoff, bad weather, prom and spring break rapidly approaching, and playing a team we beat handily earlier in the season.”

CFCA won, 9-0, at Northwood Temple on March 11.

“These factors contributed to a slow start and too many little errors on the basics,” Breslin said. “Having said that, I’m proud of how the team fought through it all and came out with a victory. I’m proud of what this team has accomplished so far this season. For the most part, we are playing as a cohesive unit and continuing to grow and I look forward to rest of the season.”

CFCA visits Crossroads Christian on April 21.
