Savannah, GA. - The Webber International women's soccer team traveled up north on Wednesday evening to take on the #6 SCAD-Savannah Bees. The Warriors were unable to contain the explosive offense of the Bee's and were defeated 5-0 in their final regular season road game in 2023.
Â
The Warriors immediately faced the explosiveness of the Bees offense in the first half of play as
Cameron Laine, the Warriors keeper, was forced to make her first save of the game in the first minute stopping the shot of Ines Sommer.
Leah McDaid tried to spark some offense for the Warriors in the fifth minute with an attempt at net, but the Bees keeper was up to the challenge and made the save. The Warriors would only manage to take three first half shots compared to the eleven for the Bees.
Deborah Guillen missed wide in the 15

Ella Campbell's shot was saved by
the Bees keeper. The Warriors were able to contain the Bees offense until the 31

Just 15 seconds later, the Bees would capitalize again on a scoring chance and Sydney Chura would chip the Warriors keeper to extend the Bees lead 2-0. The halftime whistle blew, and the score remained 2-0 heading into halftime.
