ANDERSON, S.C. - Wingate junior midfielder Izabella Miranda scored the game's lone goal with less than nine minutes remaining as the Anderson women's soccer team wrapped up the regular season with a 1-0 setback to the Bulldogs in South Atlantic Conference action Saturday afternoon at Trojan Stadium.

Anderson (9-9, 5-4 SAC) enters next week's 2011 Food Lion South Atlantic Conference Tournament as the fourth seed and will host fifth-seeded Tusculum on Tuesday afternoon at 1 p.m. at Trojan Stadium.

Wingate (13-3, 8-1 SAC) had already clinched the second seed in the tournament and will host No. 7 seeded Catawba. The Trojans outlasted Tusculum, 1-0, in a hotly-contested home match two weeks ago when sophomore Allie Waters knocked home a penalty kick in the 108th minute of play.

The Trojans entered Saturday's Homecoming contest having won five of their last six conference matches, while Wingate was riding a two-game win streak and had won 11 of its last 12 outings.

AU threatened early when Waters fired a shot in the third minute, but it sailed high of the net and the Trojans were unable to record another attempt until her attempt at the 26:03 mark was saved by WU net-minder Miriam Boucher.

The Bulldogs posted 11 shots to AU's pair of attempts in the opening half, but the Trojan defense, which set a school record with its seventh shutout, held the 'Dogs at bay.

But Miranda netted her second goal of the season in the 82nd minute, providing all the scoring on the afternoon.

Wingate out-shot AU, 21-4, and held an 8-0 advantage in corner kicks. AU goalkeeper Kaitlyn Neipp recorded six saves on the day, while Boucher notched two.
