HIGHLIGHTS

• The Warhawks had one of the match's first real chances to find the back of the net in a one-on-one opportunity, but the UWF goalkeeper scooped a ball off the grass to keep a shot off the board.
• A barrage of shots by the Argos a half hour into the match put pressure on the AUM defense, but the Warhawks were up to the task. 
• Just before the halftime intermission, a kerfuffle in front of goal resulted in a West Florida 1-0 lead at the break.
• The Warhawks got their best chance to tie the match in the 69th minute, as a Laia Gonzalez shot was saved by Lipsey to keep the home team off the scoreboard, and the Argos closed out the match.

• The Argonuats edged the Warhawks in shots (11-1) and shots on goal (6-1).
• Karla Gaytan totaled five saves, while UWF goalkeeper Maciah Lipsey needed just one save to shutout AUM.
• West Florida tallied 11 corner kicks in the match.
• The one goal allowed by AUM is the fewest in the all-time series against the Argos.

• "I felt like we were unlucky to get a point from today's match," said head coach Julianne Herrity. "The girls played solid defensively against a strong West Florida side. We are disappointed to lose on a soft goal, but we will take away the positives from today's match and get ready for another tough GSC home match next Friday."

UP NEXT

The Warhawks return to the pitch against the University of Montevallo on Friday, October 13 at 5 p.m. at the AUM Soccer Complex in a GSC matchup.
