The 2011 season for Florida Atlantic women's soccer concluded on Friday night with a 3-1 loss to rival Florida International in Miami.

FAU's offense struck early, taking a 1-0 lead, as Jesse Shugg booted her eighth goal on the year in the sixth minute of the first period.

All things considered, the Owls' defense kept relatively good pace against a blistering Panther offensive which posted a 19-6 overall advantage in shot attempts and a 10-2 advantage in corner kicks.

The breakdown would come in the second period as FIU (11-6-2, 8-1-2) took advantage of a penalty kick to score the tying goal in the 54th minute, then netted the remaining two in what would end up being just over a six minute combined span.

Breanna Lewis would take FAU's only shot thereafter, as a comeback attempt was not to be had.

The Owls, who have been plagued by injuries, finish the year ineligible for the Sun belt Tournament with an overall mark of 6-11-1, and a 2-8-1 record in conference play.

Shugg, and Brittney Nash tallied two shots each for FAU, which saw seniors Gabriela DeVries and Meghan Brown in their final action.
