AMHERST, Mass. – The University of Massachusetts women's soccer team fell to Dayton at Rudd Field on Sunday afternoon, 2-1. Ashley Lamond scored her first goal of the season for the Minutewomen (2-5-5 Overall, 1-1-2 Atlantic 10) in the 49th-minute to trim Dayton's lead down to a goal for the final 40-plus minutes.
Lamond's ninth goal of her career came following a Massachusetts corner kick as the ball deflected off a Flyer defender before finding the foot of the sophomore. Lamond took a one touch, right-footed shot from 14 yards out that sailed into the top left corner of goal.
