Women's Soccer Shuts Out Panthers

WINCHESTER, Va. - Shenandoah University continued its women's soccer winning ways with a 2-0 USA South shutout victory over Ferrum College Saturday afternoon.

The Hornets (8-6-2, 3-1-1 USA South) kept themselves in contention for a home game at the upcoming USA South Conference Tournament with the shutout over the Panthers (2-12-1, 1-6).

Sophomore Sara Hensley tallied what proved to be the game-winner in the ninth minute off an assist from freshman Amber Womack.

The two teams then went scoreless for the next 80 minutes in the cold and wet conditions on Sprint Field at Shentel Stadium before Jessi Dennis scored the second and final goal of the game with 85 seconds remaining.

Shenandoah dominated play, taking 12 of the game's 13 shots, and SU keeper Brooke Strickler had to make just one save to earn the shutout.

The Hornets host Averett on Sunday at noon in another USA South Conference game.
