Taylor Sorrels gave the Owls (1-4) an early 1-0 lead in the fourth minute until the home team notched the score later in the period.
Matters remained deadlocked through the end of regulation, and an extra period, until a 101st minute score by the Rebels (3-2-1) produced the deciding goal for the home team.
Marisa Russo and Claire Emslie had two shots each, and goalkeeper Ashley Lantes produced four saves in the loss.
"I am proud of the players’ effort", said Coach Brian Dooley. "I believe good things are going to come for this team in the future."
The squad concludes a five game stretch away from Boca Raton next weekend with a match against Stetson on Saturday at 2:00 PM in DeLand.

Emslie Leads FAU Past UAB in Women's Soccer
"Claire has always been around the goal this season," said Brian Dooley, FAU’s women’s soccer coach. "Today, she was able to finish on some of her scoring chances. Sometimes the penalty kick releases some pressure knowing that you got a goal. She has been working hard and today’s performance is certainly well deserved."
FAU lead 3-0 until the Blazers (1-7) employed an offensive flurry in the second period to draw even. But Emslie's third score proved the difference maker; the second time she has done so in 2012.
"I’m glad that we were able to pull out the victory," said Emslie. "Everybody worked hard all week in practice preparing for this match. It is good to come out with the positive result."
The Owls (2-5) snapped a three game skid with the win, and set new season highs for goals (4), and shots (20).

"The girls gave great effort today to win a road conference game," said Coach Brian Dooley. "It is always good to start off conference play with a victory. Being that it was a road win makes the result even more important."
Goalkeeper Ashley Lantes was solid in the net with six saves.

Owls See Third 2OT Affair of 2012; Lose 3-2 to MTSU
The Blue Raiders (9-3, 4-0) came out the aggressor, netting a pair of scores less than two minutes apart just before the 10th minute mark had passed.
Florida Atlantic would withstand a 27 shot entourage from MTSU on the afternoon, and was shut out until the 72nd minute when Claire Emslie pushed her sixth goal on the year through the net.
Emslie waited just over 10 minutes to place number seven past Blue Raider keeper Kelsey Brouwer; effectively extending the match beyond regulation as the Owls looked to pull off the upset.
But MTSU kept the pressure on, eventually taking the contest in the 106th minute during the second overtime period off a shot by Paige Goeglein.
The Owls managed nine shots overall, with an efficient five of those on target. Emslie accounted for five of the attempts.
The squad returns to action against North Texas this Friday at 8:00 PM in Denton.
