Jacksonville, Florida-Despite 90 hard fought minutes between two in-state HBCU rivals, Edward Waters and Florida Memorial played to a 1-1 draw during their women's soccer match Thursday afternoon at Glover Community Field & Stadium.

Florida Memorial (2-0-2) outshot Edward Waters (2-0-1) in the match 13-9 with each team putting five shots on goal. The visitors from South Florida got on the scoreboard first in the 25th minute to take a 1-0 lead that they would maintain into the halftime break.

The Lady Tigers were able to pickup their offensive intensity in the second half and junior Dahien Cabrera continued her impressive start to her season, scoring her team leading fourth goal of the season in the 56th minute to tie the score at 1-1. Both squads had scoring chances down the stretch but could not put the go-ahead goal past the opposing goalkeepers and had to settle for a draw.

Freshman goalkeeper Natalia Magharus got her first start of the season, turning away six of the seven shots on goal she faced. 

Edward Waters will continue their homestand on Sunday, September 10th with a 1:00pm kickoff against Johnson & Wales (NC) at Glover Community Field & Stadium.
