Women's soccer team falls on road, will be top seed for tournament

The Eastern Florida State College women's soccer team lost to Daytona State College 1-0 in the final Region 8 Conference game on the road Friday night.

The Titans won the regular season title by goal differential after splitting with Falcons in the regular season and will get a bye in the Region 8 Conference Tournament that begins Thursday night at Orlando Health Stadium.

On Friday night, the Titans and the Falcons played a scoreless first half as each side had chances, but nobody could get on the board.

A penalty just inside the box with 28 minutes and one second left in the contest, giving Daytona State College a penalty kick. Arianna Kinsley scored on the kick and it was 1-0.

The Titans tried to get the equalizer and had a couple of really good looks, one coming on a Mia Lewis corner kick with 14 minutes remaining.

Eastern Florida State College will head to the postseason 8-3-1 and the No. 1 seed in the Region 8 Tournament. Daytona State College is now 13-1 and will play Polk State College in the Region 8 Semifinals at 6 p.m. Thursday at Orlando Health Stadium on the Melbourne campus. The Titans will play the winner of that game on Saturday night at 6 p.m.

Admission to games at Orlando Health Stadium is free and you can watch the games live online at the EFSC Titans YouTube page.
