The Dominican University women's soccer team suffered their first setback in Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference (NACC) play on Saturday, falling to the Concordia University Wisconsin Falcons 4-0 in Mequon, Wisconsin.
 
The Falcons overpowered the Stars, peppering the Dominican goal with 24 shots, putting seven on frame and finding the back of the goal for the first time in the 32^nd minute for what proved to be the game-winner.
 
Freshman Pamela Ruiz (Dallas, Texas) and Sara Stepanovich (Des Plaines, Ill.) gave up two goals apiece as they split the match in goal, logging 45 minutes apiece.
 
"We played a tough opponent in Concordia Wisconsin," commented Carlos Carrillo, the Stars' second-year head coach, following the match.  "We attempted to execute our game plan going into the match and we struggled to adjust to their offensive potency.  While it was a tough loss, we will learn from this match and get back to work to get better."
 
The Stars are now 9-5-0 overall and 7-1-0 in the NACC.  Dominican will host IIT on Tuesday in non-conference action.  Kickoff is slated for 3:00 p.m. on the Stars' West Campus pitch.
