Ava Dawson’s two goals lead Mountaineers to first victory

On a shivery Thursday night at Ted Mackorell Soccer Complex in Boone, the App State women’s soccer team (1-4-2) were able to pick up an exciting, come-from-behind victory over their former SoCon rivals, the Davidson Wildcats (1-5-0).

Fresh after dropping a tough contest 4-0 versus Texas Tech in Lubbock on Sunday, App State came out and played with a chip on their shoulder for 90 physical, hard-fought minutes to grind out their first win of the season. Davidson entered the game coming off of a 1-2 loss against East Carolina.

Sophomore midfielder Ava Dawson led the way for the Mountaineers, knocking in her second and third goals of the year.
