Adrian, MI – The Adrian College women’s soccer team is moving on to the semifinal round of the MIAA Conference Tournament after a 4-0 victory over Albion College at Docking Stadium on Saturday night. The win marks Adrian’s first conference tournament victory since 2019 when they won the conference and advanced to the NCAA Tournament.
The Bulldogs and Britons met in this round of the tournament the last two seasons, with the Britons coming out on top in both contests. Adrian College did not surrender a goal to the Britons this year, winning 2-0 in the regular season and 4-0 Saturday night.
Annamarie Fosmoen opened the scoring for Adrian in the twenty-eighth minute off a lob downfield from Sydney Anderson to break the 0-0 deadlock. Just a few moments later, Alanna Earl buried her fifth of the year to make it 2-0 and put the Bulldogs ahead at half time.
Early in the second half, Fosmoen scored her thirteenth of the season to put the Bulldogs up by three. Earl found twine for her second of the game and sixth of the year to put the ‘Dawgs up 4-0. Kelsey Zoli and Leah Homan picked up assists in the Adrian victory. Gabrielle Fallon Revels made three saves in goal to earn the win.
The Bulldogs out-shot Albion 17-9 in the attempt column and 10-3 in the on-goal column. Fosmoen led the Bulldogs in that category, with five attempts of her own and three on goal.
The No. 4 seeded Bulldogs will head to Grand Rapids to face the No. 1 seeded Calvin University Knights at 7pm Wednesday, November 6th. That contest will be broadcast live on 96.5fm The Cave and 965thecave.com with Ian Wendt on the call.
