Belmont
With a shutout posted against North Florida, the Belmont women's soccer team advanced to the Atlantic Sun Tournament for the first time in program history. The Bruins halted their four match winless streak with a double overtime draw at Jacksonville before coming away with a 2-0 win over the Lady Ospreys over the weekend. Over the two-match stretch, senior Micaela Crowley became Belmont's career leader in minutes played (5600) and shutouts (16). Both records had stood since the 2000 season. Freshman Erica Carter notched both of the goals against UNF for her sixth and seventh of the season. She now leads the team in goals and points. The Bruins host Lipscomb in the Battle of the Boulevard in their final home match of the season on Wednesday before heading to Samford for the season finale on Saturday.

Campbell
Campbell dropped a pair of 0-1 decisions last week to Kennesaw State and Mercer. Campbell is 1-7-2 in games that have been decided by one goal. Anna DiTommaso was tough in goal for the Camels as she totaled ten saves in two games. Kennesaw State used a penalty kick in the 88th minute and Mercer struck in the 21st to beat the Camels 1-0 in each match. Campbell is seeking its first league victory in its final A-Sun match, as they travel to Boiling Springs, N.C., to take on Gardner-Webb on Halloween.

On Thursday against Gardner-Webb, the Bears scored twice in the first half and controlled the ball the majority of the match to capture the 2-0 victory and increase their current winning streak to eight games.

A pass from Kaelyn Horton in the right corner to Hudson above the box gave the Bears the early 1-0 lead. Mercer added an insurance goal with 55 seconds remaining in the first period. Meghan Castaldo notched her first goal of the season off a free kick pass by Hudson. The Mercer women’s soccer team made school history as they recorded their 11^th win of the season. The Bears defeated the visiting Camels of Campbell (1-11-2, 0-8-2) 1-0.
