Belmont Abbey junior forward Celene Molera scored both Crusader goals, with both assists coming from Nicole Voets, as the Abbey women's soccer team extended its unbeaten streak to 14 with a 2-1 win over Clayton State this afternoon. The Crusaders pick up their first win of the season as they improve to 1-0-1.

Molera and Voets connected for the first goal just 11:19 into the match, as Voets fed Molera on the right side of the penalty box and she fired home her first goal of the year for a 1-0 Abbey lead.

8:18 later, the two connected again as Voets passed off to Molera in front of the goal, where she buried home her second of the match to give the Abbey a 2-0 lead. The Lakers cut the lead to 2-1 with a goal in the 58th minute, but the Crusader defense held off Clayton State to preserve the win.

The Abbey outshot the Lakers 14-3 and held an 11-1 advantage in corner kicks. Anna Donaldson did not make a save in the net.

Clayton State's goal stopped the Abbey's shutout streak at 13, as it was the first Abbey goal allowed since September 22, 2007, when the Crusaders defeated Limestone 4-1. Since that match and including today's outcome, the Crusaders have outscored their opponents 29-2.
