KNOXVILLE, Tn- The Royals traveled to take on AAC opponent Milligan for what would turn out to be their final match of the year on 10/29, as they fell to the Buffaloes 0-1, just missing out on the conference tournament. 

Courtney Daniels and Kaitlyn Pope split time in goal as Pope registered 6 saves. The Royals were tied at 0-0 going into halftime, but a set-piece goal from Milligan proved to be the difference in the match.

The Royals will look to build on the experiences from this season next year, as many new freshmen logged valuable minutes. It will be a foundational year for many as they look to build upon it in the coming seasons.
