ANDERSON, S.C. – Anderson University women's soccer (5-1-1, 3-0 SAC) remain undefeated in conference play after posting a clean sheet against conference opponent Lenoir-Rhyne (5-2-1, 3-1 SAC) at home on Wednesday night.
 
"Very proud of the girls for following the game plan, finishing chances, and putting forth an incredible defensive effort." said head coach Sarah Jacobs.
 
Anderson capitalized on a set piece in the sixth minute as sophomore Ansley Douty (Mount Pleasant, S.C.) delivered a corner that was assisted by senior Kylie Swanson (Grapevine, Texas) before junior Whitley Anderson (Eatonton, Ga.) netted the lone goal.

The Black and Gold recorded seven shots-three coming on goal-and three corners. The Trojans led the match with 10 fouls on the Bears.
 
"They showed an incredible amount of grit and belief tonight. We will look to do it again on Saturday."
