WICHITA FALLS, Texas - Midwestern State dominated play in its regular season finale Sunday afternoon at the MSU Soccer Field.
But Angelo State's Lauren Carnes finished a counter to net the lone goal of the game as the Rambelles spoiled MSU Senior Day with a 1-0 win.
"We expect to get shutouts and we expect to score goals," MSU coach
Jeff Trimble said. "If we would have done either of those things, there would have been a different result."
The Mustangs (12-4-2, 6-4) slipped to a No. 4 seed in this week's Lone Star Conference Women's Soccer Championship which will be played The Pitch on the campus of West Texas A&M in Canyon, Texas beginning on Thursday.
MSU will face Abilene Christian in the opening round Thursday at 2:30 p.m.
With a win, the Mustangs would battle host West Texas A&M Friday afternoon at 2:30 p.m. The championship match is slated for Sunday at 1 p.m.
The Mustangs outshot Angelo State by a 22-6 margin and had a goal waved off in the 33rd minute after
Lindsay Pritchard tapped in a rebound to give the Mustangs an apparent 1-0 lead.
But Pritchard was ruled offside to nullify the goal.
Midwestern kept solid possession throughout much of the 90 minutes of play, but the Rambelles were able to piece together a counterattack in the 60th minute.
ASU senior Skylar Searles fed a ball forward to Brandie DeBacker, who found Carnes breaking free on the left wing for her first collegiate goal to provide the difference.
The Rambelles end the season with a 10-9 record and to 4-6 in the LSC.
