Lady Flames advance but Flames end year

Marina Lima scored the first two goals as No. 2-ranked Lee University defeated Ohio Dominican 3-0 in an NAIA women’s soccer playoff Saturday night on the Lee field in Cleveland. All three scores came in the last 27 minutes.

The Lady Flames, 21-1 with 15 wins in a row, will face Park University of Missouri at 8 p.m. on Dec. 1 in the round of 16 in Daytona Beach, Fla. Park advanced by edging Dordt (Iowa) in a penalty-kick shootout.

Berry’s Lady Vikings, the Southern States Athletic Conference runners-up to Lee, edged Appalachian Athletic Conference champ King on PKs after a 0-0 tie in Bristol, Tenn.

The Lee men’s soccer team ended its valiant postseason run with a 2-0 loss at Mount Vernon (Ohio) Nazarene, despite eight saves by Luidgi Beauzile. Adam Worrall scored early in each half for seventh-ranked Mount Vernon (16-3-2), which outshot the unseeded Flames (9-10-2) 17-9.

Also in Ohio, the Lee volleyball team ended its season at 29-10 with a 21-25, 25-22, 25-18, 28-26 NAIA playoff loss to Walsh University.

Lee got 14 kills and 10 digs from Stephanie Todd, 12 of each from Tina Questel and 27 and 23 assists and 11 and 10 digs from Gretchen Higdon and Milica Krsmanovic, plus 17 digs from Christeena Bertinetti.

In the soccer Lady Flames’ victory, Lima scored unassisted off a direct kick 63:47 into the game and added a goal from a Samantha Hare pass with 9:29 remaining. Hare one-timed a Jamie Achten cross for the final score at 87:19.

Lee outshot Ohio Dominican (12-5-2) 23-5 with a 9-3 edge in corner kicks. The visitors’ goalkeeper, Aimee Simonet, made 11 saves, while Lee’s Kristi Koudelka didn’t have to make any.

“Ohio Dominican is a very well-coached team,” Lady Flames coach Matt Yelton said. “They were very organized and certainly did a good job of countering our attacks.”

* Lee’s Will Jayroe was 131st out of 331 runners and teammates Chad Dean and Johnny Clemons were 159th and 177th in the NAIA men’s cross country meet at Kenosha, Wis. The Lady Flames’ Erin Wasserfall and Maggie Opelt were 171st and 197th out of 327. Shorter’s Justyna Mudy was third.
