THE MATCH
After earning four points in four non-conference matches to begin the campaign, the Trojans' journey for their first Great Midwest Athletic Conference victory was in hand tonight. Just two minutes into the match, Kelsey Havican beat Panther keeper Reegan Garrity for the early advantage. Havican's goal was assisted by Tracy Roy. Trevecca enjoyed a lead for much of the first half until an untimely foul allowed Kentucky Wesleyan a free-kick from 25 yards. Chloe Hinchcliffe leveled the match at a goal apiece when she took the free-kick over the Trojan wall and inside the near post past Delayna Holman in the 38th minute. Momentum wouldn't shift, however, as the Trojans equalized just two minutes later. Ryann Anderson connected for an unassisted goal in the 40th minute to give the Trojans back their goal advantage. Anderson's goal was the first of her collegiate career. The second half saw the Trojans nearly match their first-half opportunities, putting 15 shots up. Despite a few chances, the Trojans nor the Panthers could breakthrough in the final 45 minutes as the Trojans picked up their first conference points of the season.
