Saints Hold Off Trojans in Physical Battle; 2-0

Anderson, S.C. – The Anderson University women's soccer fell to South Atlantic Conference opponent Limestone, 2-0, on Thursday evening at Trojan Stadium. Anderson falls to 1-5 overall and 1-4 in SAC play, while Limestone moves to 4-1 overall and 4-1 in conference action.

After some tremendous saves and defensive effort by the Trojans, Limestone struck first on a free kick that found Amanda Chimbima. Chimbima was able to push it past the keeper in the 29th minute of action.

Anderson played toe to toe with a very physical Limestone squad just missing on several opportunities to put the ball in the back of the net. The Saints scored its second goal after a Trojan player was called for a handball on a free kick that was taken just outside the box.

The Saints outshot the Trojans, 22 (12) – 9 (5) with Limestone taking 10 corner kicks to AU's eight.

Anderson keeper Madison Paige (1-4) recorded five saves in 45 minutes of action, while AU's Jeanette Campbell recorded five save in the second 45 minutes of action.

The Black and Gold travel to SAC opponent Newberry on Thursday. Kick-off is slated for 4:30 pm.
