PEMBROKE – Lefke Boysen tallied her third multi-goal outing of the season to help support goalkeeper Kristen Parker's first career clean sheet as UNCP stretched its winning streak out to five games with a 3-0 blanking of USC Aiken Saturday afternoon at Varsity Grounds.

Boysen scored for the fifth-straight game and her first and second half scores marked the 13th and 14th goals of the campaign for the Bremen, Germany, native. UNCP (12-5-1, 3-4-1 PBC) also got a 28th minute goal from Sarah Day, and assists from both Alex McManus and Meredith Pierson. Jamie Clarke turned in her school record and PBC-leading 10th assist of the season as well.

USC Aiken (5-12-1, 1-6-1) fell to 0-5-1 all-time in the series with the Black and Gold, despite a 10-save performance by netminder Nicole Westphal. Four different players recorded shots for the Lady Pacers as well.

The outcome also brought UNCP's final home mark to 6-1-1 in 2007.

“This was a great way to send out four seniors that have meant so much to this program,” said UNCP head coach Lars Andersson. “Kristen Parker got the shutout, Lefke Boysen had two goals, Jamie Clarke had an assist and Petra Hagstrom logged a lot of quality time at defender. This makes five wins in a row for us and it is good to be on a roll heading into the PBC Tournament.”

UNCP recorded the first 10 shots of the contest and did not allow a USC Aiken opportunity until there was less than seven minutes remaining in the opening period. Boysen got the Lady Braves off the mark by redirecting a McManus pass from point blank range in the 6th minute and Day cushioned the advantage out to a pair in the 28th minute off Clarke's assist to give the hosts a 2-0 lead at the break.

The second stanza offered much of the same results for both sides as the Black and Gold built a 14-3 shot advantage in the latter period, but added just one insurance goal. Pierson found a wide open Boysen in the penalty area and the senior finished the scoring chance to cap the game scoring at the 76:32 mark.

Sixth-seeded UNCP will be back in action on Tuesday afternoon when the squad travels to Greenwood, S.C., to take on red hot and third-seeded Lander (12-4-0) in the opening round of the Peach Belt Conference Tournament. Kickoff has been set for 4:30 p.m. The Bearcats came out on the better end of a 1-0 game in Pembroke on October 6.
