Final Score: College of Charleston 1, Drexel 0
Location: Philadelphia, Pa.
Records: Charleston (7-3-0) CAA (2-0-0), Drexel (4-5-2) CAA (0-2-0)
The Short Story: Freshman Olivia Freitas' game-winner keeps perfect start in CAA play alive. This marks five consecutive wins for the Cougars.
QUICK FACTS
• Freitas scored the lone goal of the match which marked her first CAA goal of her collegiate career.
• Drexel held the edge in the shots category, 17-8, and shots on goal, 5-3.
• Freitas logged a team-high two shots.
• Overall, seven different Cougars took a shot at goal.
• CofC registered 11 fouls compared to Delaware's eight.
• Junior keeper Maggie Berlin recorded four saves on 17 faced shots en route to the shutout.
HOW IT HAPPENED
• Freitas scored the game-winner in the 81st minute after winning a tackle in the box and taking a left-footed shot into the upper left 90 to beat the Drexel keeper.
• Berlin diving save prevented Drexel from taking an early lead in the 22nd minute of the match.
• Sophomore Hannah Farmer forced the first save of the match for Drexel in the 38th minute when she let one fly towards the top of the goal.
• Freshman Grace Powell rocketed a ball towards goal from a direct kick, but it was tipped by the Drexel keeper and hit the top crossbar.
• Drexel threatened the Cougar's lead in the last few minutes but CofC made two great defensive plays to keep the Dragons from scoring.
HEAD COACH CHRISTIAN MICHNER
"It was another gritty performance from my team today. The girls were up for it right from the start. We talked about making sure we are staying connected and doing all the little things consistently throughout the entire match. There is no time to turn off in this league and it's a major credit to this team's focus and intensity. Playing away is never easy and I'm so proud of the way we played together and the way the girls met each challenge head on. We're happy to come away with the points in this one."
WHAT'S NEXT
The Cougars will travel to Wilmington, N.C. to face off against UNCW on Thursday, Oct. 3 at 7 p.m.
