Banner Elk, N.C. (Oct. 28, 2009) --- The Milligan College women's soccer team battled NCAA Division II Lees-McRae College Wednesday night in a non-conference matchup. After two overtime periods, the Lady Buffs and Lady Bobcats were at a 0-0 deadlock, resulting in a tie.

AAC defensive player of the week, Heather Crumplen (Courtice, Ontario) recorded three saves to keep the Lady Bobcats scoreless.
