Terry Goal Leads Camels Past East Tennessee State 1-0

BUIES CREEK, N.C.- Kaili Terry scored her third goal of the season early in the second half to help break a five-game losing skid, sending Campbell past East Tennessee State 1-0 Saturday afternoon at the Eakes Athletic Complex.

The Camels provided the only scoring of the match less than two minutes into the second half. Ellen Payne placed a corner kick to the far post, allowing Terry to head in her team-leading third goal of the year to stake the Camels to the lead and what would prove to be the only goal of the match.

Campbell had a golden opportunity to lengthen its one goal lead in the 69th minute when Payne played a ball from behind the midfield stripe to a sprinting Danielle Mandela. With a Buccaneer defender on her tail, Mandela fired a shot from the top left side of the box past ETSU keeper Erin Bilyeu for what looked like the Camel's second goal, but was stopped and cleared away by another ETSU defender.

ETSU's best opportunities to score came in the second half, with the first coming in the 82nd minute when Jordan Monty, the Atlantic Sun's second leading scorer, corralled a loose ball after a corner kick and ripped a shot wide of the left post.

With the Bucs pressing for the tying goal, Fulcher had one last opportunity in the 88th minute. Off of a corner, Fulcher made her way within ten yards in putting a header attempt on goal that was easily corralled by Campbell keeper Samar Azem.

With the win the Camels snapped program-long losing streaks at home and in Atlantic Sun play of five games. The win was the first at the Eakes Athletic Complex this season, marking the deepest in a season Campbell has gone before winning its first home game.

Samar Azem recorded six saves in goal for the Camels in recording her first solo shutout of the year. Erin Bilyeu stopped two Camel shots for East Tennessee State.

With the goal, Terry became Campbell's leading scorer on the season. Terry, a freshman from Carrollton, Texas, has three goals and one assist, good for seven points, on the season so far. Ellen Payne's assist on Terry's goal was the first point of her career. The sophomore from Fort Worth, Texas played in four games last year without scoring a point.

Next week ETSU hosts Belmont on Thursday in a game that will have A-Sun playoff implications. The Camels host in-state rival Gardner-Webb next Saturday to conclude Campbell's Homecoming week. Kick-off is set for 5:30 at the Eakes Athletic Complex.
