Falcons Fall to West Florida in GSC Final

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. – Montevallo women's soccer fell in the 2024 Gulf South Conference Championship game, 2-0, to top-seeded West Florida on Sunday afternoon.
 
Montevallo came out on the attack with Shadia Valenzuela firing a trio of shots in the first 18 minutes with a pair of shots on goal. Graduate goalkeeper Emily Hounsell tallied their first save of the afternoon in 21st minute. Montevallo saw three more scoring chances over the next 10 minutes but each time the UM shots were just off target. Following a Montevallo caution, West Florida broke the ice in the 40th minute to take a 1-0 lead over the Falcons.
 
With the Falcons trailing at the half, Hounsell was forced to make a second save in the early going of the second half before Morgan Goehring was denied by the UWF keeper in the 47th minute. On the following possession, West Florida extended its lead to 2-0 in the 49th minute. Hounsell added another pair of saves as the Falcons struggled to find a rhythm offensively midway through the second. In the 74th minute, Goehring added another shot on goal. In the last 12 minutes, Montevallo would fire four more shots, but each missed the mark, and the Falcons dropped the final game of the GSC tournament.
