The University of Wisconsin-Whitewater women's soccer team fell to UW-Eau Claire 1-0 in a Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference semifinal played at Fiskum Field Thursday evening. 

The Warhawks, the number two seed entering the tournament, received a bye through the quarterfinal round and earned hosting rights after wrapping up conference play with a 4-2-1 mark. 

UWW had the advantage in shots through the first 45 minutes 6-1 over the Blugolds. The Warhawks also held a 6-1 sway in corner kicks in the first half but were unable to find the back of the net. 

In the 78th minute, UWEC was awarded a corner and sent a long ball toward the back post that was headed back across goal. A flurry of action in front of the net saw the ball sneak through the Warhawk defense for the lone goal of the contest. 

UW-Whitewater, 11-5-4 on the season, will await a possible at-large bid into the NCAA Division III Championship. The selection show is scheduled for Monday. 

UW-Eau Claire advances to the WIAC Tournament Championship against top-seeded UW-La Crosse in La Crosse Saturday. The winner will receive the league's automatic bid into the NCAA tournament.
