Soccer Drops 1-0 Decision To Alabama A&M

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. – Texas Southern dropped a 1-0 road decision at Alabama A&M on Sunday afternoon.

Alabama A&M established an early offensive presence, pressuring the Texas Southern defense in the opening six minutes. The Bulldogs registered their first shot at the 3:54 mark when Moriah Watkins sent an attempt over the crossbar. Alabama A&M followed with three consecutive corner kicks before Ja'Keyra Bryant forced TSU goalkeeper Alicia Audu into a save at 5:29. Just 22 seconds later, Miller found the back of the net at 5:51, giving Alabama A&M an early 1-0 advantage.

Texas Southern began generating offensive opportunities midway through the half. Servane Blouin recorded the Tigers' first shot at 21:51, but her attempt sailed high and right. The Tigers continued attacking late in the opening period as Alyssa Valdez placed a shot on goal at 36:05, forcing Alabama A&M goalkeeper Adriana Durango to make a save. Rayal Henderson followed with an attempt at 36:27 that went wide right before Juliette Gomez tested Durango with another shot on target at 38:09.

Despite the late offensive push, Texas Southern entered halftime trailing 1-0. Alabama A&M held a 6-4 advantage in shots and a 5-0 edge in corner kicks during the opening 45 minutes.

Texas Southern returned from halftime looking for the equalizer and immediately began challenging Alabama A&M's defense. 

Gomez created an early opportunity at 49:58, putting a shot on target that Durango turned away to preserve the Bulldogs' one-goal advantage. The Tigers earned their first corner kick of the match at 53:28, but Alabama A&M nearly doubled its lead less than a minute later when Miller struck the crossbar at 54:22. Texas Southern continued searching for an equalizer as Savannah Muldrew attempted a shot at 59:45 that sailed high and left. The Tigers also generated another corner kick at 58:20, maintaining pressure on the Bulldogs' defensive unit. Alabama A&M's defense limited Texas Southern's scoring opportunities during the closing stages, and Durango preserved the shutout as the Bulldogs secured the 1-0 victory.

Texas Southern made one final push in the 89th minute following a corner kick. Valdez placed a shot on goal at 88:33, but Durango made the save to seal the Bulldogs' victory.

Texas Southern finished with seven shots, including four on goal, while Alabama A&M recorded eight shots with four on target.
