WICHITA FALLS, Texas - The Midwestern State Mustangs (1-7-1, 0-4) conceded an opening minute goal to the St. Edward's Hilltoppers (5-4-0, 4-0) in a 1-0 loss on Saturday afternoon at Stang Park. 

"Giving up a goal in the first minute, especially when you are on a losing streak, is the worst thing you can do," MSU coach Ryan Spence said. "However, I applaud the girls for really battling in the second half."

Sarah Preston's goal, just 43 seconds into the game, was her team leading third goal of the season.

Kelly Cannistra had a chance at an equalizer in the 31st minute, but her shot in close went wide.

Aubrey Pettett made five saves in a losing effort.  

Midwestern State has lost six straight games and is winless over their last eight games (0-7-1).
