YOUNG HARRIS, Ga. – In the team's penultimate road game for the 2025 season, the Converse University women's soccer team (5-9-2, 4-6-1 Conference Carolinas) fell to the Young Harris Mountain Lions (7-5-3, 6-2-3 Conference Carolinas) by a final score of 2-0 Saturday afternoon.

Despite the loss, the Valkyries' goalkeepers combined for six saves, equal to the number recorded by Young Harris.

The game was close in the first half, with just nine total shots between the two teams. It took Converse over 26 minutes to attempt their first shot.

The Valkyries attempted 13 shots in the second half, including five of the team's six shots on goal, but were unable to convert any into a goal.

With just under eight minutes remaining in the game, Young Harris struck again, doubling the lead to 2-0.
