Lynchburg, Va. - The Hornets opened up their ODAC schedule with a win at home against the Guilford Quakers, 3-0.
The Hornets got things started early,
Madelyn Boyce finding the back of the net, for her forth time this season, at the 17 minuet mark to put Lynchburg out in front 1-0. Within a matter of minuets, lighting would strike once again.
Meghan Lauder added to the Lynchburg total with a goal on the door step at 20 minuet mark and gave the Hornets a 2-0 lead going into the half.
In the following 45, Lynchburg immediately picked up right where they left off. Just under three minuets after the intermission,
Leilianis Irigoyen carved her way through the Guilford defense and snuck another goal past the Quaker goalkeeper.
Lynchburg's crisp passing all day long allowed them to control throughout. Majority of the game being played in their attacking third, the Hornets tallied 16 shots and eight corner kicks to Guilford's six shots and three corners.
With a win in three of their last four contests, the Hornets now look to carry that momentum into their next game against. Washington & Lee. The Hornets will host the Generals on Wednesday, Oct. 2 at 7 pm in a CODE RED contest.
