MIAMI SHORES, Fla.—The Barry Buccaneers fell 2-1 to the 22nd-ranked Tampa Spartans at Buccaneer Field on Tuesday night.

The Spartans (9-3-0, 3-1-0 SSC) struck twice in the first half, including a penalty kick by Lauren Moore just 4:00 minutes into the game. CiCi Gonzalez scored in the 20th minute on a rebound after her own shot.

The Bucs (3-5-0, 1-3-0 SSC) got on the board in the 62nd minute. Freshman Lavinia Nkomo sent in a cross from the right side and fellow rookie Kayla Hodge chipped Tampa keeper Kori Butterfield to the far post for her first career goal.
