Soccer Shuts Out Ferrum

PEMBROKE – UNC Pembroke scored a pair of goals in each half and limited Ferrum to just one shot on goal on the way to a 4-0 win Tuesday evening in Conference Carolinas action at LREMC Stadium.

Willow Price struck for a brace in the first half, while Lilly Vegborn Green tallied a brace of her own in the second half. Price added a pair of assists, while Hailey Jones, Sasha Baker, Leila Utate, and Jillian VanWormer each recorded an assist.

The Braves (7-1-4, 6-0-3 CC) moved to 5-0-0 in the all-time series with the Panthers (2-9-0, 0-8-0 CC).
 
SCORING SUMMARY
9' Hailey Jones fired a shot that was saved by the Ferrum goalkeeper, but the rebound bounced right to the foot of Willow Price, who one-touched it into the back of the net for a 1-0 lead.
25' Sasha Baker collected a loose ball and played a ball ahead to Price, who fired a left-footed strike from just outside the penalty area and past the Ferrum goalkeeper to make it 2-0.
76' Price flicked on goal kick to Leila Utate, who played a long ball ahead to Lilly Vegborn Green, who found the back of the net from just inside the penalty area to stretch the lead to 3-0.
87' Jillian VanWormer connected with Price who then found a streaking Vegborn Green down the right side, before Vegborn Green snuck one in off the far post to make it 4-0.
