“It was a great season opener for our program, as our first game scheduled earlier in the week was cancelled due to storms.” commented head coach, Hope Clark “I was pleased that we were able to see minutes on almost every player and that the goals and assists were spread out through the team.  The team had really put in the work during preseason, so I was excited they could see that effort pay off today.”

The Falcons had 20 shots compared to Georgia Military’s 2 and 11 shots on goal compared to 2.

The Falcons are now 1-0-0 on the season while Georgia Military College is 0-2-0
