Pirates Fall to Tribe
September 18, 2022 | Soccer
GREENVILLE, N.C. - The East Carolina soccer team lost to traditional women's soccer power William & Mary 1-0 on Sunday at Johnson Stadium. Elaina Longjohn scored the lone goal of the match, assisted by Jillian O'Toole.
The goal came on a countering chance when O'Toole caught the Pirates out of position and made an easy pass to Longjohn for the wide-open finish. Shooting from the left side of the box to the right of the goal, the shot was virtually unsavable.
The Pirates did have chances on the day with three shots on target on 11 total shots but were unable to put any of them away.
Key Stats
The Pirates remain at home to host the Houston Cougars on Thursday at 7 p.m. The game will be free to attend and available for streaming on ESPN+.
