Pippa Passes, KY: On Sunday, October 6th, the Alice Lloyd College Lady Eagles soccer team returned home to face the Southwest Virginia Flying Eagles (4-4) in a match that was postponed from last week due to weather. Over 90 minutes of play, the hosts put up a good fight before eventually dropping a 5-0 decision.
