Lady Wildcats fall to Belhaven in season opener

Box Score Box Score
The 2014 Louisiana College Lady Wildcats' soccer team opened their season on Friday night in Jackson, MS. against future ASC member Belhaven University. 

The Lady Cats played tough in the first half, as they trailed 1-0 at intermission, but a five goal surge in the second half was enough to give Belhaven the momentum they needed to secure a 6-0 win. 

The Lady Cats, notably missing the leadership of their senior captain Anna Champagne, held strong on defense in the first half, as a goal by BU's Jessica Mahoney in the 37th minute from the top of the box was the lone score of the first period.

But Mahoney was not done, and her unbelievable second half performance helped seize the momentum early in the second half as Belhaven was able to pull away.

Mahoney scored goals in 47th, 57th, and 62nd minutes of the second half to pull off the ultra-rare feat of four goals in a single match.

BU's Ashley Harber and Laura Quintero also added goals in the 59th and 85th minute, respectively, to give Belhaven the 6-0 win.

The Lady Wildcats did see some impressive performances from a few of their newcomers, as freshmen Mckenzie Bodin and Marina Cacho combined for five shots, including two shots on goal.

LC will have a short break before they take on Millsaps University on Saturday in Jackson, MS at 3:00 p.m.
