BOSTON, Mass. — Behind a trio of goals, Campbell women's soccer dominated Northeastern 3-0 for its first Coastal Athletic Association win of the season on Sunday afternoon at Parsons Field.
Campbell moves to 4-7-4 overall and 1-3-2 in conference play while Northeastern falls to 5-6-3 and 3-2-1 in league action.
Campbell's three goals scored is the most scored in a conference match since the 2024 season when the Camels defeated Hampton 7-0.
The Camels jumped out to an early lead just six minutes into the match as
Ava Kanaar converted the header off the set piece from
Abby Connolly.
Campbell doubled its lead in the 18th minute as Connolly scored her third goal of the season to tie for the team lead. The junior found the top center of the goal from roughly 30 yards out to make it 2-0.
The Camels totaled just five shots in the first half compared to the Huskies' six and tallied four corners.
Campbell carried its offensive momentum into the second half scoring in the 62nd minute for a 3-0 lead.
Kira Moore took the free kick setting up a
Zahra Fepessi header that found the top left of the net.
Anais van Doesburg picked up her fifth solo shutout of the season and tallied five saves in goal. The goalkeeper picked up a huge save in the final minute of the match to keep the Huskies off the board.
Kanaar registered three points setting a new single game high while Connolly tied her single game high with three points. Connolly last registered three points against George Mason during the 2024 season.
