Columbia International University Athletics

The Columbia International University women's soccer team was looking to get back in the win column as they traveled to take on Toccoa Falls College. The Rams dominated the game and were in control from the opening whistle as they beat the Eagles 5-0. With the win the Rams move to 5-3-2 on the year, while the Eagles drop to 2-8-1.

The Rams came out ready to go and took control as soon as they stepped on the field. A majority of the first half saw the Rams attacking the Eagles goal. Even with the offensive output, the Rams were only able to score one goal in the first half as Alanna Battermann took the pass from Janie Holland and was able to deposit in the back of the net. The Rams had 12 shots in the first half, while the Eagles had one.

The Rams continued to put the pressure on the Eagles in the second half and they were rewarded for it. McKenzie Miller would get the scoring spree started for the Rams as she took a pass from Kaylyn Hernandez to give the Rams a two goal lead at the fifty minute mark. The Rams would get back on the board just six minutes later as Battermann and Holland worked their magic once again, but this time is was Holland who scored and Battermann who got the assist. The Rams would get their fourth goal of the night when Holland scored at the sixty-nine minute mark off passes from Hernandez and Sotiria Tsilionis. The final goal of the night would come off the foot of Rebekah Reinhard. She was able to take a beautiful pass from Janna Rickenbaker and beat the keeper to give the Rams their final score of 5-0.
