Bulldogs Fall at St. John’s

QUEENS, N.Y. – The Butler women's soccer team dominated possession and produced the majority of shots taken, but St. John's made the best of fewer opportunities and came out victorious with a final score of 3-1. The Bulldogs (5-6-4, 1-2-3 BIG EAST) and the Red Storm (8-4-3, 3-3-1 BIG EAST) were scoreless at the half. After two St. John's goals within a three-minute span, Butler scored to draw to within one. The home team then added one late goal to produce the final margin.
