Rhodes women's soccer defeated Westminster College in the last non-conference weekend 3-0. The Lynx defense completely shut down all of the Blue Jay offense, blanking them on the score sheet. The Blue Jays were unable to create a shot on goal or a corner. On the other hand, the Blue Jay defense was busy all game long. The Lynx created 44 shots total, 25 shots on goal, and 13 corners. With all of that action the Westminster defenders did well to hold the Lynx to only 3 goals.
