Emory University's three-game undefeated streak came to a close on Friday night, as the Eagles were handed a 2-0 defeat by their conference-rival, the 11^th-ranked University of Rochester.

The match was a defensive battle between the two University Athletic Association (UAA) squads.  Despite the Yellowjackets amassing 17 shots during the contest, only six of the chances were on goal.  Meanwhile, Emory was held to just four shots in the contest, two of which were on goal.

After the two teams battled through a scoreless first half, the Yellowjackets' Scott Cady struck with a goal in the 64^th minute.  Rochester's Jake Cargill secured the victory with the team's second goal in the 79^th minute.

Emory fell to 10-4-1 on the season with the loss, including a 1-3-1 mark in UAA matches, good for sixth-place in the conference.  Rochester rose to 11-1-2, and remained in second place in the conference with a 4-1-0 UAA record.

The Eagles will look to return to their winning ways on Sunday, when Emory will play its final road match of the season in Cleveland, OH against Case Western Reserve University at 11:00 AM.
