LOUISVILLE, Ky. - Drury pulled out of a halftime tie with two second-half goals to beat Bellarmine 3-1 in Great Lakes Valley Conference women's soccer action Sunday afternoon.
Drury's fourth straight victory pushed the Panthers to 4-2-1 overall and a league-leading 4-0 in GLVC play. Bellarmine fell to 4-3-1 and 1-2.
The Panthers took a 1-0 lead just 4:41 into the match on freshman Nicole Williams' team-leading fourth goal of the season with an assist from junior Mandi Little, but Bellarmine tied it at 16:17 when Cristina Fugedy scored as it stayed that way through the half.
But Drury answered in the second half with an unassisted goal by Little at 66:40, also her fourth of the season to match Williams, and gained some breathing room when freshman Hillary Cockrell scored off an assist from sophomore Aly Reynolds.
Sophomore keeper Jessie Sanderson had nine saves as Drury was outshot 16-13 in the match.
The Panthers return home next weekend to host Northern Kentucky (5 p.m.) on Friday and Indianapolis (noon) on Sunday in GLVC matches at Harrison Stadium.
