Firebirds Open Battle of the Border with Strong Defensive Stand in Scoreless Draw

KENOSHA  — The Carthage women's soccer team kicked off day one of the Battle of the Border, welcoming Bethel, Kalamazoo, and Concordia Wisconsin to Art Keller Field. The Firebirds faced Concordia Wisconsin in the opening match, battling the Falcons to a scoreless draw.

How it Happened
