Women's Soccer Team Earns Third Straight GSAC Victory

For the third straight Great South Athletic Conference match, the Piedmont College women's soccer team was victorious defeating visiting Wesleyan College this evening by the score of 4-0 at PC's Walker Field. Katie Porter led the charge by scoring three first half goals and recording her second hat-trick of the season.

Porter struck the eventual game-winning goal unassisted at the 3rd minute and followed up with a second goal on an assist from Caitlin Delvasto at the 24th minute. Just six minutes before halftime Porter struck her third on an assist from Samantha Graham.

In the second half, teammate Jennifer Osborne tacked on an insurance goal with the assist coming from Anna Darvish at the 46th minute. Goalkeeper Erin Porter continued her dominance between the posts and chalked up her third shutout of the season with three saves.

The victory moves Piedmont to 4-5-1 overall and 3-2 in the Great South Athletic Conference. The women will return to action again on Friday, September 29th as they face off against visiting Agnes Scott College at Walker Field starting at 7:30.
