Freshman Jade Flory scored her seventh goal of the season, but two first-half goals led Butler to a 2-1 win over the Youngstown State women’s soccer team on Saturday afternoon at StambaughStadium.

The Guins fall to 3-6-2 overall and 0-1-1 in the Horizon League while Butler improves to 7-5-1 overall and 2-1 in the league.

Butler’s Katie Griswold put the Bulldogs ahead 1-0 just five minutes into the game, lacing a shot past YSU goalkeeper Nicole Kline from 20-yards out.

The Bulldogs, who posted 13 shots in the first, to a 2-0 lead at the 37:06 mark when Kelly Mahoney scored her first goal of the year – a header off a corner kick from Stephanie Kaylor.

Flory cut the Bulldogs lead in half at the 62:41 mark with her seventh goal of the season. Flory found the back of the net after a crossing pass from from senior Geneva Strelka. Sophomore Taylor Gapczynski was also credited with an assist on Flory’s goal.

The Guins host Detroit, Wednesday, Oct. 5, at 4 p.m. at Stambaugh Stadium.
