KALAMAZOO, MI – The Buffalo women's soccer team (5-9-3, 2-7-1 MAC) could not pick up points in back-to-back conference games on Sunday afternoon, falling 2-1 at Western Michigan.

"We started out slow this afternoon and could not get anything going offensively," stated sixth-year head coach Michael Thomas. "We will continue to work and try to improve in our regular season finale on Thursday against Akron."

The Bulls were held scoreless for most of the game before Courtney Mann broke through in the 89^th minute with her first goal of the season. Mann took a perfect pass from Sophie Therien and put the Bulls on the board with under a minute left in the contest.

The Bulls however, could not get the equalizing goal in the final minute and dropped the conference road match.

Western Michigan opened up the scoring in the first half in the 27^th minute as Rachel Chaney scored her first of two goals on the day. Her sixth goal of the season was assisted by Aubrey Sudomier.

The Broncos extended their lead to 2-0 in the second half behind Chaney's second goal of the game which was assisted by Sudomier once again.

The Broncos held the slight 10-7 advantage in shots along with a 3-1 advantage in corner kicks for the game. Ainsley Wheldon finished off her game with four saves while Mann and Megan Giesen led the team with two shots each.

The Bulls will wrap up their regular season schedule on Halloween at 4 pm as they will travel to take on Akron.
