News from Lindsey Wilson College

CLEVELAND, TN - After trading goals early in the first half, it was an own goal by Vanguard (Calif.) on a Lindsey Wilson College corner kick that gave the second-ranked Blue Raiders a 2-1 win on Saturday, September 15, 2012, against the No. 16 Lions on the final day of the Lady Flames Classic hosted by Lee University.

Mia Persson gave the Blue Raiders a 1-0 lead in the 19th minute on a shot that was chipped in to the far corner of the goal after she gathered a missed clear attempt by Vanguard.



The lead didn't last long as the Lions returned the favor in the 25th with a goal by Amanda Couch from eight yards out past Blue Raider keeper Josephine Frigge.

In a contest where Vanguard (4-1-0) outshot the Blue Raiders 19-11, it ended up being an errant touch by the Lions that gave Lindsey Wilson (3-2-1) the win.

Newcomer Renee Hurd served up a corner kick for Lindsey Wilson that ended up being sent into the back of the net by one of the Lions own players. Scored as an own goal, the Blue Raiders took a 2-1 lead in the 63rd minute and neither team scored again.
