What Went Down

Ashland's Morgan Bittengle receieved a pass near midfield and completed her weaving run by firing a shot past QU keeper Megan Swanson (St. Charles, Mo./St. Dominic) in the 87th minute.

Prior to that point, the Lady Hawks' defense was stout against a high-powered Ashland attack that features Bittengle, a two-time all-region player, and Deijah Swihart, the reigning GLIAC Freshman of the Year.

Quincy did not allow a shot until the 54th minute and Bittengle's goal was Ashland's first shot on goal in the game.

The Lady Hawks absorbed some pressure in the opening minutes, but once they were able to establish possession, they looked on the verge of scoring.

Junior defender Bailey Greubel (St. Louis, Mo./Nerinx Hall) nearly scored on a set piece corner kick, but was denied by AU keeper Courtney Barker in the 20th minute.

Just minutes later, sophomore attacker Cassidy Foley (Quincy, Ill./Quincy Notre Dame) had her driven shot saved by a diving Barker. The rebound fell to junior forward Mackenzie Rief (Wentzville, Mo./St. Dominic), but her shot rolled across the goal mouth, just wide.

QU continued to push after halftime, but the Eagles saw more of the ball in the second half and the visitors controlled the last 15 minutes.

QU Top Performers

Junior forward Mackenzie Rief (Wentzville, Mo./St. Dominic) led Quincy with four shots, including three on goal, while Foley and junior wing Natalie Quisenberry (St. Louis, Mo./Lafayette) had two shots apiece.

The back four of Greubel, junior Allison Birke (O'Fallon, Mo./St. Dominic), sophomore Gabby Orlando (St. Charles, Mo./Francis Howell) and senior Brianna Andert (St. Peters, Mo./Fort Zumwalt East) were solid in limiting the Eagles' chances in the first half.
