Towson Women's Soccer Opens Conference Play with Win

TOWSON, Md. – Emma Kirkpatrick records an assist on the opening goal of the night on her senior night as Towson women's soccer earns three points in the CAA opener against Hampton 2-0 on Thursday.

Kirkpatrick, who has played in the backline for much of her collegiate career, used that defensive acumen in a more forward role to disposes the Hampton defender, leading to the offensive threat. She found a streaking Emely Rubio on the side of the pitch who connected on a cross with Kale'a Perry who put the ball past the keeper at the near post.

"It felt really great to put my team ahead," Kirkpatrick said. "I saw Rubio open and she had an amazing cross into [Perry] and she finished it. It was good to have the one to nothing lead. Then Emma [Levin] also scoring another to clinch the win felt really good."

Before the game, Kirkpatrick was honored alongside Luisangely Navas Gonzalez, Gracen Houck and Reese Borden on senior night for their contributions to Towson women's soccer.

"It means a lot for me to do this on my senior day," Kirkpatrick said. "I came from another school. Even though I'm a new girl, they still honored me. It made me feel even more part of the team. I love it."
