Lady Indians earn 1-1 tie against Oxford College

This past Wednesday the Indians jumped in their vans and traveled over near Atlanta to play Oxford College of Emory University. The Oxford women had roughly handled several teams that the Indians had played and struggled with so the Indians were expecting a tough match in Georgia. They were not disappointed. “Oxford College is a premier NJCAA women’s soccer program,” according to Glass, “they compete successfully in the tough region 17 which has produced several NJCAA national champions in recent times.” The Indians women were not intimidated by Oxford and played systematically to achieve a 1-1 draw. “This was a fantastic result for this team as we went to Georgia with exactly 11 players,” said Glass, “we had 0 subs, this on the day after our hard fought battle with Lancaster.”

On Saturday at 3pm the Salk women’s soccer team will travel to Wilmington, NC to play last year’s Region X champion Cape Fear Community College. The Indians lost to Cape Fear 4-2 earlier in the season and are looking to even up the series on this trip.
