CLEVELAND, Tenn. – The University of Alabama in Huntsville women's soccer team suffered a narrow 1-0 setback to Lee on Wednesday at the Ray Conn Sports Complex.
The Chargers (5-7-1, 3-5-1 GSC) registered nine shots, including four on goal, while holding Lee (9-1-3, 6-1-2 GSC) scoreless through the opening 45 minutes.
Kaitlyn Lewis and Michella Tortelli led the UAH attack with three shots apiece. Lewis placed two attempts on goal, while Tortelli and Carley White each added one shot on target.
UAH goalkeeper CeCe Szopa recorded three saves in the first half to keep the match scoreless at the break.
The Chargers created a pair of scoring opportunities in the 57th minute, including an attempt by Lewis that was turned away. Lee broke the deadlock in the 61st minute, but UAH's defense limited the hosts to just four second-half shots after allowing 13 in the opening period.
UAH returns home Saturday to host Valdosta State.
