BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - The Hendrix College women's soccer team took a tough-luck loss in their final game of the regular season falling 2-0 to Southern Athletic Assoication rival Birmingham-Southern College on Saturday afternoon in Birmingham.

Nicole Newton scored off an assist from Devin McDonald, putting the home team ahead 2-0. The Warriors generated several opportunities in the second half, earning three corner kicks, but only had one clean shot on goal.
