ST. PETERSBURG – Jasmine Gallo netted a second-half equalizing penalty kick as the Eckerd women's soccer team battled Georgia College to a 1-1 draw on Senior Day Saturday afternoon at Johnson Field.

Georgia College opened the scoring in the 22nd minute on an own goal by the Tritons to take an early 1-0 advantage. Eckerd looked to respond throughout the remainder of the half, generating six shots, including attempts on target from Freija Aflenzer and Nell Doe, but entered the break trailing by one.

The Tritons continued to apply pressure in the second half, creating several scoring opportunities. The breakthrough came in the 76th minute when Gallo converted a penalty kick to level the match at 1-1. The goal marked her first of the season.

Eckerd held a 15-10 advantage in shots, including a 9-6 edge in the second half, and earned four corner kicks compared to Georgia College's two.

Madi Winn collected five saves in goal for the Tritons, while Aflenzer, Gallo, Doe, Amy Woodhead, and Madison McKeon each recorded two shots.

The Tritons will return to SSC action on Wednesday with a home game against Saint Leo.
