#articleRelated { display: none !important; } The College of Charleston (3-3-0, 1-2-0) battled a late second-half surge by the Mountaineers (3-1-0, 1-1-0) to come away with a 2-1 victory in women's soccer action this afternoon in Boone, NC.

Teryn Schuetz scored with the game-winning goal in the second half at the 47:05 mark, scoring off the Jamie Stewart assist past ASU keeper Breland Meany.

The Cougars opened the scoring in the first half when Kristin Rhyne scored at the 13:10 mark assisted by teammate Caroline Wertis.

An evenly matched offensive half saw Charleston with six shots to ASU's five. Each keeper recorded three saves in the first stanza although the Cougars managed to notch one goal.

The Cougars seemed to be running away with the contest when Schuetz connected on Charleston's second goal of the game to put the score at 2-0. However, ASU managed to turn the momentum when Renee Stetkevich sent a free kick toward the Cougar goal and teammate Whitney Southard battled with Charleston keeper Alice Keeney to muscle the ball into the net. ASU could not keep the pressure on as the stingy Cougar defense clamped down to keep the final at 2-1.

Keeney had four saves in goal for Charleston as did ASU keeper Meany. The Cougars managed to outshoot ASU 11-9 in the contest.

The Mountaineers return to action on Tuesday, Sept. 23 against Winthrop. Gametime is set for 7:30 PM. The Cougars host Charleston Southern Sept. 24th at 6:00 PM at Patriots Point.
