CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. – Top-ranked Spring Arbor University used six first half goals to take down the Campbellsville women's soccer team, 8-0, on Tuesday night at Finley Stadium.

After Spring Arbor took a 5-0 lead in the 25th minute, Campbellsville looked to create some offensive pressure with a corner kick, but the Lady Tigers were not able to cash in on the set piece.
 
The Cougars rounded out the first half with a goal from Lauren Orr in the 41st minute to grab a 6-0 advantage heading into the half.
