TOLEDO, Ohio – The Toledo women's soccer team found itself on the wrong side of the scoreboard Thursday evening, as the Rockets (7-12-0, 4-7-0 MAC) fell 3-1 to Bowling Green (12-5-2, 10-1-0 MAC) in a rainy match on Halloween at Paul Hotmer Field. The Falcons scored all three of their goals in the second half, breaking a 1-1 tie with two late goals to seal the win.

Toledo amped up its offense, however, possessing well in their middle and attacking thirds. Freshman Stephanie Currie drew a hard foul in the box in the 54th minute, getting the call and setting up a penalty kick for the Rockets. Senior Abby Demboski stepped up to the challenge, and placed a beautiful kick to the lower left corner to tie the game at 1-1.
