The Falcons fell further down the standings this weekend after suffering two more losses against Mid-American Conference opponents.

BG traveled to Ball State on Friday night, only to lose 1-0. Then they headed south to Miami yesterday, and were defeated again, 4-1. Alicia Almond did score in the only bright spot of the weekend for BG.

Almond scored in the 32nd minute of the contest, giving her her first goal of the season.

‘It was the best goal I have seen this whole season,’ said coach Andy Richards.

But other than the spectactular goal, the Falcons did not play well, according to Richards.

‘We had a disastrous weekend,’ Richards said. ‘I don’t even know what the problems were.’

The RedHawks outmatched the Falcons 13-8 on shots on goal. This is a far contrast from Friday night’s contest where the Falcons actually outshot the Cardinals 6-5, and held an impressive 12-2 margin on corner kicks. But the results were the same in two tough losses.

For BG, it was a continuation of bad decisions and individual mistakes that have plagued them all season long, which now sees them sitting at 4-8-1 on the season and 0-3-1 in the MAC standings.

BG returns home Friday night to host in the Ohio University at Cochrane Stadium with a 4 p.m. kickoff.’
