Bay FC beats North Carolina 1-0 for its first road victory of the season
Bay FC grabbed its first road victory of the season by shutting out the North Carolina Courage 1-0 in Cary, N.C. on Saturday night, snapping a two-match losing streak.
Midfielder Kiki Pickett scored the lone goal of the match in the 33rd minute, and it was a special one. Her long-distance half-volley rattled off the crossbar and into the back of the net. The goal from the top of the box was the second score of the season for the former Stanford standout.
Bay FC goalkeeper Jordan Silkowitz had a save on the Courage’s lone shot on goal.
The club’s clean sheet marked its second shutout of the season for Bay FC (2-2-1), the last coming on Bay FC’s last victory — on March 22 vs. Racing Louisville FC at PayPal Park.
