MUNCIE, Ind. (EMUEagles.com) -- The Eastern Michigan University soccer team dropped a 5-0 decision at Ball State University Sunday, Sept. 25, in a match played in Muncie, Ind. The Eagles (1-5-3, 0-1-1 MAC) were held to just five shots on the day as the host Cardinals (2-3-4, 1-0-1) netted five goals on 19 attempts.
 
How It Happened
The host got on the board in the 12' as Delaney Caldwell found the back of the net for a 1-0 BSU lead. The match remained close throughout the remainder of the half with the two sides heading into overtime with the Cardinals leading by one. In the second half, however, the hosts took control Avery Fenchel knocked in a shot just under four minutes into the half (49') with Caldwell adding her second in the 63'. The Cardinals added scores from Jenna Dombrowski and Tori Monaco in the 73' and 89', respectively, to close out the match.
