PRATT, Kan.- Coach Burnett and her group of young women were finally given the opportunity to play their first official match at Pratt's new soccer/track & field complex, and the result was nearly perfect as the Beavers defeated Southeast Community College 1-0. 

The lone goal in the match came very early at the four-minute mark. Starting the counter-attack, Reyna Meraz intercepted the ball, and began drifting to the right side of the Beavers formation. She then found Kassandra Ramos, who quickly sent a lovely-weighted through ball to her forward, Amaya Myers. The Beavers attacker took one touch, that being a pass to the middle of the box, where she found Quemberi Merida. Merida set the ball at her feet, lobbed an accurate shot over the goalie's head, and saw the ball find the back of the net in spite of a partial deflection by the keeper. 

Much of the remainder of the game was the Beavers controlling possession without any real threat from the Storm's attack. Pratt continued to create chances and near-finishes, but the one goal was enough to the final whistle. 

The Beavers return to action on April 10, when the ladies host Highland Community College.
