Box score

GREENEVILLE, Tenn. --- Carly Mill recorded a pair of goals, including match-winner in Tusculum's 4-0 South Atlantic Conference victory over Coker Sunday afternoon at Pioneer Field.

Mill tallied her third and fourth goals of the season, while Kelli McCalla also dished out two assists, including the helper on Mill's match-winner in the 12th minute.

Tusculum (6-5-1, 3-3-1 SAC) has won its third consecutive match and move above .500 for the first time since last month's 5-0 win over Ohio Dominican as TC improved to 3-2 at that point.

Mill's first goal came at the 11:50 mark of the match as she took a pass from McCalla and hit a shot to the far post for the 1-0 lead.

TC added another goal in the 14th minute when Olivia Kilgore took a through pass form Payton DeHart, dribbled into the box untouched and beat the keeper one-on-one.

Tusculum recorded two goals in the second half, including Mills' second goal in the 62nd minute, while Carlie Thornber posted her fifth goal of the year, which was assisted by Haley Klages and McCalla.

The Pioneers out-shot the Cobras (3-7, 2-5 SAC) by a 26-7 margin, including 12-0 in shots on goal.

Coker keeper Shelby Middleton tallied eight saves in the loss. TC keeper Miriah Martin picked up the victory to even her season ledger at 5-5-1.

The Pioneers return to action this Wednesday afternoon when they host Georgia College for a Southeast Region match-up beginning at 5 p.m. at Pioneer Field.
