JACKSONVILLE, Fla. --- The LIU Brooklyn women's soccer team wrapped up its season-long five-game road slate with a 2-1 defeat against the University of North Florida Sunday afternoon at Hodges Stadium.
Redshirt senior Jenn Peters scored the last of the game's three goals, all of which were netted in the first half. After North Florida scored in the third minute and added another goal in the 24th, Peters put the Blackbirds on the board with an unassisted tally 23 seconds later. The native of Slate Hill, N.Y. was able to quickly slip past the defense and beat UNF keeper Rhiannon Conelley with a shot to the lower left side of the goal. Peters led LIU with three shots, all of which were on goal.
