MOBILE, Ala-- The 2nd-ranked University of Mobile women's soccer team defeated Truett-McConnell 2-0 in the first round of the SSAC Tournament Saturday afternoon.
Mobile (15-3-1, 10-1) advances to the Quarterfinals in Montgomery Nov. 8.
The Lady Rams dominated possession, out shooting the Bears 25-4 for the game and finishing with an 11-2 edge in shots on frame.
All of the offense came off the foot of Christy Lachappelle. After a scoreless opening half, the senior forward beat a Truett defender deep into the 18-yard box, and fired the ball top shelf from a tough angle.
Then, 23 minutes later, Lachappelle capped the scoring by bending a ball into the far corner from the top of the 18-yard box.
