Georgia Southern suffers first loss of 2026 at B1G foe; faces Toledo on Sunday
ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Michigan tallied a pair of second-half goals to hand Georgia Southern women's soccer its first loss of the season, taking a 2-0 victory on Thursday evening at the U-M Soccer Stadium in Ann Arbor, Mich.
The meeting was the first between the Eagles (4-1-2) and the Wolverines (1-1-3) and also the first match played by Georgia Southern women's soccer in the state of Michigan. The Eagles will wrap up its four-match road swing on Sunday, facing Toledo in a 1 p.m. non-conference contest in Toledo, Ohio.
The first half was scoreless as Michigan enjoyed a 7-2 edge in shots. The Wolverines got on the board in the 67th minute as a cross from the right side by Lilley Bosley was redirected into goal by Natelle El Mokbel.
A bit of bad luck led to the second Michigan goal. Quinn Wilson came out of her box to try and clear a ball, but collided with a Michigan player. El Mokbel got onto the loose ball and her shot deflected off of an Eagle defender to roll into the net in the 77th minute.
The Eagles had golden chances to get one back in the 78th minute as Kaitlin Cook's shot from outside the box was pushed over the bar. On the ensuing corner kick, Emma Chapman had a shot that went just wide.
Michigan's Ella Jablinskey capped the scoring with a goal in the 85th minute.
The Wolverines finished the match with a 19-6 edge in shots. Wilson made two saves in net in her 77 minutes, while Katie Oakley made one save in her 14 minutes of action. Malia Zillman made three saves in net for Michigan.
