Clippers fall in final game of season

The Clippers hosted the Wilmington University Wildcats in their final game of the 2010 season.  The Wildcats went straight to the offense and starting attacking from the beginning of the game.  Though the Wildcats were attacking the Clippers held strong on defense and kept them from scoring.  The Clippers were able to grab a few shots but were unsuccessful.  At the end of the first 45 minutes the Clippers and the Wildcats were tied at zero. 

The Wildcats opened up the second half of the game with a goal just 33 seconds into the half.  With the Clippers down 1-0 they started moving the ball up the field to go onto the offensive.  As the Clippers were on the attack a crossed ball from Katrina Donaldson was sent to Chrystal Gardner for the shot and the goal to tie the game up at 1-1.  The Wildcats came back four minutes after the Clippers goal and took the lead back to make it 2-1.  With time running out the Clippers tried to score but were unable to as the Wildcats held them at bay.  At the end of the half the Clippers fell to the Wildcats 3-1.
