Lightning delays in no way discouraged the Golden Eagles women’s soccer team on August 10.
In their season opening exhibition against the Southeastern Louisiana Lions, the Southern Miss Golden Eagles soccer team coasted to an easily taken 8-1 win.
Southern Miss got to the opposing keeper early and never looked back. Eight minutes in, Stephanie Garcia scored the first goal to be seen this season, Hannah Abrams followed shortly thereafter at the twenty-minute mark.
Although Garcia did find the back of the net again, the freshmen players stole the show from there.
