SELINSGROVE, Pa. – The Susquehanna women's soccer team could not get past Landmark Conference opponent Catholic and fell 3-1 to the Cardinals on Senior Day Saturday afternoon in Selinsgrove. The team's seven seniors were honored in a pregame ceremony.

After falling into an early hole, Kate Wiley's (Sellersville, Pa./Pennridge) first-half goal briefly tied the game but Catholic (8-6-0, 2-1-0) regained a 2-1 lead and never looked back en route to the win.

SU (1-10-1, 0-3-0) was out-shot 21-7 and took just one corner kick to the Cardinals' five. Goalie Rachel Norbuts (Woodstown, N.J./Woodstown) tallied 10 saves, five in each half, that helped keep Susquehanna in the game.

The Cardinals got on the board after just over five minutes of play when Kaylre Greaves netted a goal for the early 1-0 Cardinal advantage. Susquehanna remained behind 1-0 for the next 22 minutes before Wiley took a Laura Buriak (Salem, Va./Salem) throw-in and knocked the ball from 20 yards out past the Catholic goalie to tie the game at one.

Unfortunately Catholic responded a mere 23 seconds later with its own goal to retake the lead at 2-1 with 17 minutes still to play in the half. Caitlyn Cameron (Bristow, Va./Highland School) came up with a defensive save at the 41:46 mark to help keep it a 2-1 game at the midway point of the action.

SU was able to hold Catholic to only one goal in the final 45 minutes of play but unfortunately was also unable to find the back of the net in the half.
