The 17th-ranked Belmont Abbey women's soccer team scored three goals in the firs 49 minutes as the Crusaders registered its eighth clean sheet in ten matches with a convincing 3-0 win over Mount Olive before a packed Homecoming crowd at Alumni Field. The Abbey moves to 10-0-0 overall and 5-0-0 in Conference Carolinas, while Mount Olive drops to 3-6-1 overall and 1-3 in Conference Carolinas.

Belmont Abbey was never threatened as it controlled the match from the start. Freshman forward Emily Archer put the Crusaders ahead just eight minutes in as she tapped in a cross from Connie Axiotis to give the Abbey a lead it would never lose.

13 minutes later, Kristin Voirin made it 2-0. Kristin Foster sailed a corner kick that that went untouched all the way to the far post, where Voirin was all alone and she poked the ball into the net.

That was all of the scoring until the 49th minute when Foster logged her second assist of the day, lobbing a corner kick to the near post where Nicole Voets beat her mark and headed home the winner.

The Abbey outshot Mount Olive 10-7 and held a 4-3 edge in corner kicks. Anna Donaldson made two saves in the net.
