San Antonio, Texas – The Centenary women's team lost for the first time this season after winning its first 10 games as the Ladies fell to Trinity, 4-0, on Sunday in a road Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference match.
The Ladies (10-1, 2-1 SCAC) are still off to the best start in program history and have eclipsed last season's win total (9) and have won the most games in a season since going 10-8-1 in 2011.

The Tigers (9-2, 3-0 SCAC) led the Ladies 1-0 at the half on Sunday and then put the game away with three second-half goals. Trinity took 16 shots in the match to just four for the Ladies, and held a 9-4 advantage in corner kicks and scored off two of those opportunities.
Trinity's Camryn Beall opened the scoring with a goal in the seventh minute of the first half. Nyah Shepherd's goal put the Tigers ahead 2-0 early in the second half and then a few minutes later Kaity Ward scored for a 3-0 lead.

La.) and junior Maggie Pitcher (San Antonio, Texas) for the second game in a row, as Delhommer started and played the first 67 minutes, recording three saves.
