Covenant Protects Home Field; Advances in Conference Tournament

LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN, Ga. - Women's Soccer, the No. 3 seed in the CCS Tournament, began its postseason journey with a visit from No. 6 seed Huntingdon. AS they did just a week ago in their regular season finale, the Scots took care of the Hawks to clinch a spot in the CCS Semifinals. 

Final: Covenant 4, Huntingdon 0
Records: Covenant (7-4-5, 5-1-2 CCS), Huntingdon (5-10-1, 3-5-0 CCS) 

HOW IT HAPPENED: 

  • In the 19th minute, Rachel Wall gave Covenant the lead with a goal after dribbling past two Huntingdon defenders. 
  • Just a few minutes later, the Scots doubled their lead on a Lila Wiley breakaway goal that was assisted by Leah Marr. 
  • The Scots continued to put pressure on Huntingdon as Adelle Stumbo had two shots saved in the 41st minute, one by the goalie and another by a Huntingdon defender. 
  • At the intermission, Covenant had 11 shots while Huntingdon had two. 
  • It was similar play for the Scots as the second half began with shots from Marr, Wiley, and Emma Riggs in the first 15 minutes. 
  • Huntingdon's only shot of the second half was off target in the 61st minute.
  • Tyneisha Herring scored Covenant's third goal in the 68th minute with the help of two great passes by Aiden Strawbridge and Abby White after a dropped ball from the referee. 
  • Minutes before the final whistle, Blythe Jelley found Marr for a headed goal to give the Scots a 4-0 lead.
