GS will celebrate Senior Day against Appalachian State on Oct. 16
ATLANTA, Ga. – The Georgia Southern women's soccer team fell to in-state rival Georgia State 2-1 on the road Friday night. Georgia State's freshman forward Brooke Shank put the Panthers on the board early, scoring two goals within the first 30 minutes of the contest. The Panthers carried a 2-0 lead heading into halftime and throughout the majority of the second half, but junior forward Sarah Price cut that lead short in the last 10 minutes of the match. Price scored her fifth goal of the season on an assist by senior Jennifer Wittick, but the late rally wasn't enough to lift the Eagles over the Panthers. GS will play again at home on Sunday, Oct. 16 to face off against Appalachian State and celebrate Senior Day.
