Monarchs Fall at Chowan 1-0
Goalkeeper Erin Swanson makes seven saves

MURFREESBORO, NC-  The Monarchs traveled to Chowan for a non-conference game with the Hawks hoping to continue a five game winning streak.  Unfortunately, Chowan forward Ashley Bradford beat the Monarch defense in the 31st minute to win the game 1-0.  Methodist moves to 7-3 on the season while Chowan improves to 7-4-1.

Chowan dominated the first half 10-4 in shots before Methodist came back in the second with 12 shots to the Hawks' 7, but the Monarchs could not find the back of the net.  Goalkeeper Erin Swanson made 7 saves for the Monarchs while Chowan goalkeeper Tiffany Lee grabbed eight.

The Monarchs will return to conference action Saturday as they host Christopher Newport at 12 pm at the Monarch Soccerplex.
