Kohutek nets lone goal for Ladyjacks in late-match offensive efforts
THIBODAUX, La. — SFA lost to Nicholls 2-1 on Thursday. The Jacks recorded five of their seven shots in the second half and held Nicholls scoreless after halftime, but the first-half deficit remained.

Earlier, the Ladyjacks put shots on goal through Carlie Thurmond and Kamrynn Davis, but Aislinn Wright saved both attempts, while Brandie Musser made two saves before the Colonels broke through.
Sawyer Kohutek converted a penalty kick at 84:30 as SFA cut Nicholls' lead in half, 2-1 late in the second half. Earlier, the Jacks pushed forward with a corner and shots from Sydney Williams, Alyce Chappelle and Kensley Smith between 70:07 and 77:11.
