The Lions returned to Shirk Stadium for their first conference game against the Widener Pride.

READING, Pa. – Women's Soccer (6-5-1, 0-1 MAC Commonwealth) hosted Widener (5-4-1, 1-0 MAC Commonwealth) in what was the first conference game of the season for both teams. The visiting Pride left with a 2-1 win after both sides traded momentum swings throughout the contest.
