Levin Goal Allows Tigers to Earn Fifth Conference Point

TOWSON, Md. – A second half goal from Emma Levin allowed the Tigers to come away with a draw and their fifth CAA point in a 1-1 decision against Hofstra. Towson remains tied with Drexel in second place with five points.

This game wraps up a stretch of three straight home games to start conference play for Towson women's soccer. Five of the remaining six games are on the road for the Tigers, starting with North Division leaders Stony Brook.

"It felt really good to tie up the game," Levin said. "[Kale'a Perry] was dribbling down the line and we've been practicing crosses so I just made sure to get there, time it right and score. It felt amazing to celebrate with my teammates. It's so fun to score and celebrate with my teammates."
Key Stats:
  • The Tigers lost the possession battle for the first time since playing Florida with the Pride owning 52% of possession.
  • Teagan Gardner had her second consecutive game with four saves.
  • Hofstra earned 13 corners to Towson's three, which included one which was awarded with less than 10 seconds on the clock.
  • Malin Bernt Shops and Jaelyn White were shown yellow cards.
How It Happened:
  • The Pride came out at a blistering pace to start the game, applying consistent early pressure and a goal in the fourth minute.
  • The attack continued for Hofstra through the first 15 minutes before Towson calmed the game down and played the Pride even for the remainder of the first half.
  • The second half started chippy, eventually leading to the Shops yellow card.
  • The get-the-ball-to-Perry tactic was on full display in the second half as she routinely beat the right back to put in a cross or a shot towards the keeper.
  • The strategy paid off in the 61st minute when a Perry cut back put the ball at the feet of Levin who put it to the back of the net.
  • Hofstra nearly got a break away before White made a smart decision to tug on the Hofstra player's shirt, bringing her down. It was a clear yellow card but also prevented a great scoring opportunity for the Pride.
Inside the Numbers:
  • Towson moves to 4-27-2 all-time against Hofstra.
  • The Tigers are unbeaten in their past two home games against the Pride (1-0-1).
  • Perry's assist moves her to 13 points on the season (four goals, five assists).
Next Game:
Towson will start a two game road swing starting with Stony Brook on Thursday at 6 p.m. The Seawolves and Tigers are currently separated by one point in the CAA North Division.
