Commodores Fall to Gators in SEC Home Opener 10/4/02

The return home was unkind as the Commodores fall 2-0 to the Gators Friday night at the Vanderbilt Soccer Complex in the SEC home opener. Florida improves to 4-6-1, 1-1 as Vanderbilt falls to 2-6, 0-2.

The Gators' forward Robin Fulton was able to squeak the first goal in off a rebound from Vanderbilt keeper Esther Thompson at 30:53 in the first half. The second Florida goal was scored by Meghan McMillian at 56:55 as she blasted a shot past Thompson in the far corner. The third and final goal came off a penalty kick by Danielle Murphy at 76:57.

The 'Dores best chances both came in the second half. Early in the second, the Commodores watched Erin Higgins' shot slowly roll wide after a rebound from goalkeeper Jordan Kellgren. Kellgren was at the center of the other opportunity as Kat Carroll wrestled away a loose ball in the box and put a strong shot on goal that nailed the right post.

The Commodores return to action Sunday afternoon at 1 pm at the Vanderbilt Soccer Complex to face the South Carolina Gamecocks.
