SIOUX CENTER, Iowa - The Carroll College Women's Soccer team fell at the hands of Dordt at the Pizza Ranch Classic 2-1 on Friday night.

In the ninth minute Dordt's Karinna Tel managed to find the back of the net to put the Defenders up 1-0.

Carroll would mount a heavy attack for the remainder of the first half, putting up 10 shots, including a ball that rattled off of the crossbar by Zoie Koci (Boise, Idaho / JR), but were unable to score before the break.

Dordt filled the stat sheet in the second half, taking 12 shots. In the 72nd minute, Avril Baccam was able to beat the keeper and put the Defenders up 2-0.

Carroll's Amaya Winkler (Billings, Mont. / SR) was able to score for the Saints in the 79th minute to narrow the margin to one, but the Saints were unable to finish the comeback, losing 2-1.

The Saints will regroup and get ready for another match tomorrow against Northwestern College to wrap up the Pizza Ranch Classic.
