FULTON, MS -- The Lady Indians (0-2; 0-0 MACJC North) dropped their second-straight match of the season after a 5-1 loss to Meridian Community College on Wednesday.
"This has not been an easy start to the season for the girls," said Coach Mike Sullivan. "Opening the season with Delta State and then facing a Meridian team that will be in the mix for the state championship at the end of the season is tough to ask of any team. We have a lot of young girls that are having to adjust to the collegiate level of play in a hurry, but you want to play up a level to help you get better as the season progresses."
Carley Burns (Lewisburg) scored the Lady Indians' lone goal of the day.
The Lady Indians will look to rebound on the road against Jones County Junior College on Friday.
"Jones is always one of the better teams in the state," said Sullivan. "It's going to be another tough test for the girls, but this type of competition will make them better when we start division play in September."
