NORFOLK, Va. — Campbell women's soccer returned to the win column with a, 2-0, dominate performance over Hampton on Sunday afternoon at Powhatan Field. 

Campbell (3-4-3, 1-1-1 CAA) secured its first conference victory moving to 1-1-1 in CAA play while Hampton (5-6-1, 0-3 CAA) falls to 0-3. The shutout is the fourth of the season for the squad. 

JLo Varada earned her first start of the season in goal securing the shutout, which marks the seventh of her career. Varada faced eight shots on frame and registered four saves for a season high. 

Campbell (3-4-3, 1-1-1) got out to an early lead just 20 minutes into the match. Abby Connolly lobbed the ball out to a racing Ella Wineka close to the middle of the box before she fired the ball past the Pirates' goalkeeper. 

Abby Connolly would then connect with Zahra Fepessi off the corner kick to double the Camels lead. Connolly found Fepessi off the far post who headed the ball into the back of the net. 

The second half was much of a physical battle with three yellow cards recorded, two by the Camels. 

For the sixth time this season, Campbell registered more shots than its opponent. The Camels took 12 shots compared to the Pirates' eight shots. Wineka led the team with five shots for a career high shots taken. 

Connolly registered a pair of assists marking the first Camel to do so since August 18 against George Mason last season.
