Two Pioneers named to SAC All-Tournament Team

Two Pioneers named to SAC All-Tournament Team
ROCK HILL, S.C. ---

Tusculum College placed two players on the Food Lion South Atlantic Conference Women's Soccer All-Tournament team, which was announced following Wingate University's 2-1 victory over Lincoln Memorial University in the championship match on Sunday.

Junior midfielder Nikki Arthur and freshman midfielder Olivia Kilgore were honored for their performance in the tournament, which saw the Pioneers advance to the semifinals before being eliminated by eventual champion Wingate.

Arthur scored the only goal of the match on a first-half penalty kick in the Pioneers' 1-0 victory over Queens in a quarterfinal match. The goal was her third of the season and helped Tusculum advance to the semifinal round for the fourth time in the last five years. Meanwhile, Kilgore was the anchor of a Tusculum defense that limited Queens to one shot on goal in the quarterfinal round as the Pioneers recorded their 11th shutout of the season.

Tusculum concluded its 2013 season with a 10-7-3 overall record, the program's 16th season of 10 or more wins in the last 17 years. The Pioneers finished third in the SAC with a 7-2-2 record in conference matches and tied Wingate and Lenoir-Rhyne for the fewest goals allowed in league action with six.
