LAGRANGE, Ga. - Belhaven women's soccer picked up its first win of the 2016 season Thursday evening, earning a 2-1 road victory over LaGrange College.

Belhaven continued to pepper the Panthers with shots in the second half and evened the score in the 58th minute as junior midfielder Amber Thomas scored an unasisted goal. 

Just over twenty minutes later, junior forward Jessica Mahoney found the back of the net for the Blazers, giving the Green and Gold a 2-1 lead. Thomas assisted on the game-winning goal. 

Belhaven finished with 21 total shots and 11 shots on goal while LaGrange recorded just six shots and two on goal. Mahoney had nine shots to lead the Blazers while Thomas and Savannah Raines totaled three shots on goal each. 

Belhaven moves to 1-2 on the season with tonight's win and will now have a week off from play before traveling to Austin, Texas on Sept. 16 to begin conference play versus Concordia Texas.
