PROVIDENCE, R.I. – The St. John's women's soccer team fell to Providence on the road, 2-0, on Wednesday night at Chapey Field.

The Red Storm (3-8-4, 0-4-3 BIG EAST) maintained a 53-47 advantage in possession and matched the Friars with three corner kicks. St. John's registered 10 shots, including five on target, while Providence (3-3-9, 1-2-3 BIG EAST) finished with 18 attempts. The Johnnies increased their offensive pressure after halftime, generating six of their 10 shots in the final 45 minutes.

Juliana Dane and Abby Fitzmaurice led the Red Storm attack with two shots apiece, including one on goal each. Maya Terwilliger, Taryn Madsen and Janelle Sylvestre also registered attempts on target, while five other Johnnies contributed to the offensive effort.

Graduate student Kayla Bower recorded four saves over the full 90 minutes, bringing her season total to 55. The Lincoln Park, N.J., native has registered six shutouts, a single-season career high, while posting a 1.01 goals-against average and a .786 save percentage through 15 starts.

The Friars broke through in the 15th minute on a goal from Amaya Coffie, but the Johnnies continued to apply pressure. Terwilliger and Dane each put attempts on frame before halftime, but Providence maintained its 1-0 advantage.

The Red Storm continued to push forward in the second half, generating three shots in less than a minute. Madsen forced a save in the 64th minute before Nora Basile and Dane added attempts. Julia Lombardo and Fitzmaurice continued the offensive effort down the stretch, but Providence doubled its lead on an Emma Gregorski penalty kick in the 85th minute. Sylvestre registered one final shot on target in the closing seconds, but the Friars held on for the 2-0 decision.
