SALISBURY, Md. – The Salisbury University women's soccer team dropped the opening game in the Salisbury University Classic on Saturday, 1-0, to the Rowan University Profs at the Gerry DiBartolo Sea Gull Soccer Complex.
The Sea Gulls threatened in the 23rd minute with an
Olivia Pasko shot on goal that was scooped up by Rowan's keeper, Leah Edinger. Rowan put three shots on target throughout the 1st frame that were all handled by
