CLEVELAND, Tenn. – After a night where the fireworks seemed to come at the perfect time, Campbellsville University women's soccer ran out of gunpowder against Lee University in the NCCAA Mid-East Regional Championship. CU saw the Lady Flames score six first-half goals and seven total to dash the hopes of the Lady Tigers extending their season to the national tournament.

Within the first four minutes, Lee University set the tone of how the game would go. Leah Fortune recieved a pass from Ode Fulutudilu and scored the first goal for Lee and the Lady Flames didn't look back.

Although CU recorded 22 total shots just 24 hours before, it could not muster enough ball possessions and offense to make a vallant effort at moving the ball down the field. The Lady Tigers were out shot today, 34-5 and 13-2 shots on goal. 

The Lady Tigers only true opporutunity came on the lone corner kick by senior Bailey McDonough. Besides that, Lee took control of the whole first half.

Strong play by goalkeeper Brandie Hagerman kept the score reasonable as it could have been a lot worse. But the senior from Hartford, Ky. didnt let down and made three spectacular diving saves in the first 45 minutes of play.

Lee used two hat tricks from Fortune and Summer Lanter. Also Fulutudilu scored the lone goal in the second half. 

Campbellsville's only offense came from freshman Devon Burnside and senior Toria Alsip, as they recorded the only shots on goal.

CU finishes the season with a 12-6-2 record and it is the fourth time in five seasons the Lady Tigers have dropped the NCCAA Mid-East Regional Championship game.

Seniors, Jessica Ralph, Bailey McDonough, Brandie Hagerman, Savanna Stephens and Toria Alsip all played their final game wearing the maroon and grey. This recruiting class for Coach Thom Jones has been one of the most successful classes in his era. They have all played valuable minutes for the Lady Tigers and had many bright moments throughout their careers. This 203-14 class accumulated an overall record of 48-31-4 while at Campbellsville.
