Ragin' Cajuns earn first win in Monroe since 2011; move into third-place tie in SBC standings
MONROE – The freshman duo of Olivia Gelpi and Karleen Bedre broke up a scoreless tie in the second half and the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns Women's Soccer team earned a 2-0 victory over ULM in a Sun Belt Conference match on Sunday at the ULM Soccer Complex.
Â
Mackenzie Lee and Victoria Mendes combined on a shutout as Louisiana (7-5-3, 3-2-2 Sun Belt) earned its first win in Monroe since 2011 and moved into a third-place tie with Arkansas State in the Sun Belt standings.
Â
Louisiana, which had five of its six shots on-goal in the first half, finally broke through in the 53rd minute when Gelpi took a pass from Skyla Sykes off a cross and scored past ULM goalkeeper Angel Hailey for her first career goal.
Â
The Ragin' Cajuns kept up their pressure and added an insurance goal in the 70th minute that began with a goal kick from Lee. Bedre took Lee's boot that landed just past midfield and beat a ULM defender to the goal, where her shot got past Hailey into the left lower corner of the goal.
Â
Louisiana, which defeated ULM (3-9-2, 0-6 Sun Belt) for the eighth time in the last 10 matches, outshot the Warhawks, 13-4, while placing eight shots on-goal. Gelpi and Bedre each had a pair of shots on-goal for the Ragin' Cajuns with Una Einarsdottir, Alexis Arnoult, Alex Augustyn and Rachel Sutter each providing a scoring opportunity.
Â
Lee recorded a pair of saves for Louisiana while moving into third-place on the Ragin' Cajuns all-time list for minutes played by a goalkeeper (3,586).
Â
Hailey recorded six saves to lead ULM with Khyjian Thomas and Camryn Ciaramella each attempting a shot on-goal for the Warhawks.
Â
Louisiana will return to action on Friday when it wraps up its 2019 road schedule at Georgia State in a 6 p.m. CT.
