CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky – The (RV) Campbellsville University women's soccer team have now been victorious in five straight matches following their triumph against the Shawnee State University Bears Saturday afternoon 7-0.
From first kick, the Lady Tigers took control of the contest and never ceded it.
Angeline Kieh made her mark in the 5

Lina Berrah connected for her first goal of the match from an assist by fellow forward
Rebecca Lilley. A mere three minutes would pass before Kieh would connect on another goal. Kieh made the most of another one-on-one opportunity pulling the goalie and chipping the shot just over the keeper's slide. Shawnee State would establish their own breakaway soon after, but freshmen goalkeeper
Doeschka Birnage shut it down with a clutch save. The Lady Tigers would score again before the half in the 22

Lina Berrah. The junior midfielder
Sangmin Cha controlled a ball in the box and found Berrah on the left side for the score.
Coming into the second half, the Lady Tigers had ten shots compared to two for the Bears. Both of those shots by Shawnee were on goal while seven of Campbellsville's were. Birnage's two saves kept the Bears scoreless entering half number two.
Berrah and Kieh both secured their hat tricks early in the new half. Berrah's shot was from an assist by Kieh in minute 55 and Kieh's was assisted by Lilley in the 62
