App State women’s soccer defeated the University of Southern Mississippi 2-1 Friday. The game was highlighted by graduate student forward Izzi Wood breaking the Mountaineer’s all time scoring record with her 31st career goal.
Freshman forward and midfielder Libby Bermingham got the first goal of the game and the first goal of her career in the first half. Freshman defender Maddie Williams dropped in a free kick to sophomore midfielder Walker Bristow’s head. The pass from Bristow was placed to Bermingham, and she slotted it past the goalkeeper.
The Golden Eagles equalized early in the second half as Southern Miss forward Zayla Reagan put a shot past redshirt freshman goalkeeper Anna Claire Jacobi.
