The Mason Girls' Soccer Team gave Andy Schur his first win as their new head coach while upsetting the country’s No. 1 ranked program, the St. Ursula Bulldogs on Tuesday night at the Mason Soccer stadium. The Comets defeated the two-time defending state champions 1-0 with senior forward Megan Frye scoring the games only goal in the first 10 minutes of the game off an assist by sophomore mid-fielder Haley Haffner.
“The Comets came into the match as the clear underdog,” said 1st year coach Andy Schur. “All of the ladies on our team were confident that they could compete with the highly skilled and very talented Bulldogs.”

The contest was a back and forth affair with St. Ursula getting the majority of the possessions. The Comets counter attack provided the offense with numerous scoring opportunities. The Mason defensive unit shined throughout the evening led by senior goalkeepers Kimmy Connor and Tina Mathur, combining for the team's first shut out of the season. Mathur had a key stop in the second half on a diving direct kick that she deflected over the bar.
The Lady Comets are back in action Tuesday, September 8th at Little Miami. Their first GMC test comes on the road against Sycamore on Thursday, September 10th.
