Greensboro, NC (10/08/2025) — Greensboro, NC - Abby Lush came through in the clutch on Tuesday night as she scored the game-tying and winning goals to help women's soccer take down Mary Baldwin 2-1.
Both teams had their share of shots taken in the first half. The Fighting Squirrels took 8 shots in the half while Greensboro took 7. In the 38th minute, Mary Baldwin took a 1-0 lead after Mackenzie Shores scored on a contested shot in front of the goal, and the Fighting Squirrels took that 1-0 lead into halftime.
However, Greensboro made adjustments in the second half, as their offense dominated possession and out-shot Mary Baldwin 9-6.
