Milligan College, Tenn. (Nov. 2, 2013) â€" The Milligan College women's soccer team defeated Appalachian Athletic Conference rival Truett-McConnell 2-0 in this afternoon's senior night match-up.
 
Milligan played a solid defensive first half allowing Truett-McConnell only two shots the entire half.

The Lady Buffaloes recorded six shots and four shots on goal. Although, Milligan continued to pressure, both teams would remain scoreless the remainder of the first half.
 
The Lady Bears played a better second half offensively recording nine shots. However, Milligan goalie Charlotte Stephens (Grays, England) would keep the Bears off the scoreboard making three crucial saves. The Buffaloes maintained their offensive pressure in the Bears' defensive zone eventually recording the game's first goal by Christine Hardin (Elizabethton, Tenn.) in the 59^th minute. Alexa Bigl (Lighthouse Point, Fla.) would also put her name in the score sheet by adding another goal shortly thereafter extending the Buffaloes' lead 2-0. Despite the Bears offensive efforts, the game would end in a shut-out for the Lady Buffaloes.
 
Caroline Gill (Stafford, VA) led the way for the Buffaloes in the shots column recording four shots. Hardin and Rebecca Buchanan (Knoxville, Tenn.) would both earn two shots as well. Defensively, seniors Lindsey Ogle (Morristown, Tenn.) and Grace Shawley (Mineral Springs, N.C.) were key factors in tonight's shutout. The two produced several takeaways and crucial defensive stops in the Buffaloes' end keeping the Bears from finding the back of Buffalo net.
 
With the night's win, the Buffaloes finish their regular season at an overall record of 6-10-1 and a 5-5 AAC record.
