Box Score ALLIANCE, Ohio -- The tournament push for the Heidelberg University Women's Soccer team was stymied by the Mount Union Purple Raiders on Wednesday night. The hosts scored twice early in the second half and held off a frantic 'Berg comeback bid for a 2-1 victory. 

After a scoreless first half, Mount Union found the back of the net. Two minutes after intermission, MTU was able to connect off of a corner kick. Their second goal came in the 65th minute.

The home team held a 2-0 lead into the second half. Brianna Braatz, executing on Heidelberg's singular shot of the game, was able to put the Student Princes on the board. Connecting on a through ball from Adrianna Williams, Braatz buried the ball past the keeper, lifting the score 2-1. Braatz's eleventh season goal moves the junior forward to second in the conference.

Maddi Springer tallied five saves over 90 minutes in goal.
