The No. 20 Cavaliers were unable to turn a strong defensive performance into a win against the Demon Deacons Saturday.
Virginia goalkeeper Katherine Blair made 15 saves -- 11 in the second half -- as the Cavaliers held Wake Forest to only one goal. The Demon Deacons' average is 3.35 goals per game.
Wake Forest's Michelle Kasold gave her team the game-winning notch by pushing one past Blair, her teammate on the U.S. Junior National team.
With the win the Demon Deacons maintain their undefeated record, moving to 16-0 as the Cavaliers fell to 8-8.
