Ranger Women's Soccer Season Comes to an End with a 2-1 Defeat at the Hands of Colorado Mines

Durango, Colo.: The Regis University women's soccer team ended their season today in the first round of the NCAA Division II Central Region Tournament with a loss to Colorado Mines 2-1. Regis, making its second consecutive trip to the NCAA Tournament, ends the season with a 14-5-4 record.

Regis controlled much of the first half, however, the Rangers let the Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference Player of the Year, Kayla Mitchell, get behind the defense 11 minutes into the game. Her shot ricocheted off senior goalkeeper Marianne Clausen's hand into the back of the net.

Mitchell scored her 29th goal of the season on a similar play 34 minutes into the first half to make the score 2-0. The score remained 2-0 at halftime with each team taking three shots and the Rangers having four corner kick opportunities to just one for Colorado Mines (18-4-0).

The Rangers got on the board in the 60th minutes when junior Katie Horn served a ball into the box and Mines' goalkeeper Briana Schulze misplayed the ball and senior Chelsea Reichard was able to take advantage and score her eighth goal of the season to cut the lead in half.

Regis had good opportunities in the second half as well, outpacing the Orediggers 4-0 in corner kicks. With just 45 seconds remaining, Regis had the ball inside the box and after the ball was kicked around, went off a Ranger and into the net for a goal, but before the ball went into the net the side official raised his flag indicating an offsides penalty by Regis voiding out the goal. Mines was able to run the clock out and advance to take on Fort Lewis on Saturday afternoon.
