MONMOUTH, Ill. (10/17/2024) — The Monmouth College women's soccer team dropped a 2-1 decision to Illinois College on Wednesday. The Scots (3-7-3, 1-2-1) pulled even early in the first half, but a second-half penalty kick decided the game.

The Lady Blues took the lead in the seventh minute with a breakaway goal. Not even a minute later, Monmouth equalized. Danielle Beach (Geneseo, Illinois) found Jaden Stockton (Springfield, Illinois) with a through ball and the freshman beat the IC keeper for her third goal of the season.

The game was still tied through halftime and into the 60th minute. Monmouth gave up a penalty kick on a foul in the box and IC took a 2-1 lead. The Scots had a couple very good chances to tie the rest of the way but the IC keepers tallied six saves, two in the second half.
