New York University's women's soccer team fell 1-0 in a University Athletic Association (UAA) contest at Emory University in Atlanta on Friday night.

The Eagles controlled the match in the first half, attempting eight shots while holding the Violets to just one. 

In the 18th minute, Emory's Kylie Hall lined up for a penalty kick and sent the ball past a diving Riley Felsher for the only goal of the night. 

NYU had more opportunities in the second half, recording four shots after the break, but couldn't find the back of the net as the team fell to 5-2-5 on the season and 0-2-1 in UAA play.

Despite the loss, Felsher played well with a season-high five saves. Dominique Bevacqua, Rachel Kim, Catie Collins, Nikki Lee and Hunter Hoelscher each attempted a shot for NYU.

The Violets conclude the UAA road weekend on Sunday, October 16, against University of Rochester in Rochester, NY, at 1:30 p.m.
