Tuesday, November 01, 2011
The Calvin women’s soccer season came to an end Tuesday afternoon at Calvin’s Zuidema Field as the Knights suffered a 2-0 defeat to Kalamazoo. The loss eliminates Calvin from MIAA Tournament contention. Calvin finishes 10-6-0 in league play and 10-10-0 overall. The Knights tie Hope for fourth place in the MIAA standings but Hope receives the fourth and final spot in the MIAA Tournament due to a tiebreaker edge as Hope swept Kalamazoo this fall while Calvin split with the Hornets. In Tuesday’s loss to Kalamazoo, Calvin outshot the Hornets 15-13 including 9-3 in the first half but the Knights were unable to overcome a pair of goals by Kalamazoo striker Jackie Short. Lauren Merz had three saves in defeat for Calvin in goal.

HOLLAND – Although next Tuesday’s game against Kalamazoo will go in the books as an MIAA regular season contest, the match will have a post-season feel to it. The Calvin women’s soccer team made sure of that on Saturday with a 3-2 victory at rival Hope to keep the Knights in the thick of the hunt for one of the final two MIAA Tournament spots. Adrian has already secured the MIAA regular season title while Alma has locked down the second place spot. Meanwhile, Calvin, Kalamazoo and Hope are all locked in a three-way struggle for the final two spots for the four-team MIAA Tournament scheduled for November 3 and 5.
