Crusaders Drop Home Match to Wildcats

Front Royal, Va.- The Christendom College women's soccer team suffered a 3-0 loss on Saturday afternoon to Johnson & Wales University.

Johnson & Wales set the tone early, scoring within the opening 15 minutes to take a 1-0 lead. Christendom responded with solid stretches of possession and a few promising runs forward but struggled to break down a well-organized Wildcats defense.

The visitors doubled their lead late in the first half, capitalizing on a defensive miscue to go up 2-0 heading into the break.

In the second half, Christendom continued to battle, with standout defensive efforts keeping the match within reach. However, a third Johnson & Wales goal midway through the half put the game out of reach.

Despite the scoreline, the Crusaders showed resilience and flashes of quality, especially in midfield play and team cohesion.
