Soccer: Second-Half Rally Lifts USM Past Cajuns, 2-1

LAFAYETTE – The Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns soccer team played a back-and-forth game against Southern Miss and fell 2-1 on Sunday at the Ragin' Cajuns Soccer/Track Facility.

Louisiana (1-3) scored first in the 2nd minute on a goal by freshman mid-fielder Celine Rumpf – the first of her career – from the top of the box.

The teams, who went through a two-and-a-half hour delay due to lightning prior to the match, were held scoreless for the remainder of the first half.

"Overall in the first half I thought we were excellent," head coach Scot Wieland said.
