ALEXANDRIA, La. - The Alabama State soccer team fell 4-0 to the University of Arkansas Pine-Bluff in the quarterfinal round of the Southwestern Athletic Conference tournament on Thursday, November 3 at the Johnny Downs Soccer Center in Alexandria, La.

The Lady Lions wasted little time getting on the board as Reaghan Zilkie scored in the second minute (1:34) of the game. Silvia Fuentes and Molly Stone assisted on the play as UAPB took an early 1-0 lead.

ASU was able to keep UAPB in check the rest of the half, but the Lady Lions added three more goals in the second period to blow the game open.
Fuentes scored UAPB's second goal as she took a pass from Nicole Parks-Powell and firing a shot past freshman goalkeeper Kylee Hathaway in the 61st minute (60:25) to give the Lady Lions a 2-0 lead.
