CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. --- Chattanooga's Brenna Swiger connected on a goal late in the game to put the Mocs on the board in a 2-1 loss Thursday evening to 15^th-ranked Xavier (4-0) at Finley Stadium.
 
Nicole Solete picked up a pass back out off a corner kick and found Mocs transfer Brenna Swiger in the top right corner of the box.
