Game Recap: Women's Soccer |

Lynx post shutout over Millsaps in first SAA game of the season

Jackson, Miss. - Rhodes College women's soccer has opened conference play with a 2-0 victory over Millsaps College. The Lynx played on the road and out-shot the hosts 24-3 to improve to 4-3-1 on the year. 

Rachel Giampapa created space and slipped the ball to fellow senior Sydnie Schindler in the 20th minute. Schindler evaded a Major defender and corralled the ball into the left corner for her sixth goal and first game-winner of the season. 

By halftime Rhodes only allowed Millsaps to get off one shot while one of their two opportunities in the second half came in the final minutes of play. 

Rhodes' offensive chances climbed in the second half as the Lynx tallied 13 shots. Senior Aly Hoyt served up junior Carly Cone in the 82nd minute for Cone's third goal of the season. Hoyt, the SAA-leading assister, now has six assists on the season. 

Rhodes will play a mid-week game at Christian Brothers University on Tuesday at 6 p.m. before hosting their first conference game next weekend when BSC rolls into town.
