Florida International Loses to Florida Atlantic for first time, 4-0

he Florida International University Women's Soccer team lost for the second straight match last night, dropping a 4-0 decision to Florida Atlantic at home. Florida Atlantic won its first ever match against the Golden Panthers thanks to a hat trick effort from Senior Forward Trina Maso de Moya.

The FAU Owls had been 0-17 all-time versus FIU coming into the game, but on this evening they outworked, outshot, and outscored the Golden Panthers for the victory.

Maso de Moya, a graduate student who completed her undergraduate work at Wake Forest, scored her first points of the season on the three goals. She now leads the team with six points. FIU next faces South Florida in Jacksonville at 2:00 p.m. Friday.
