Lady Vols shut out Lipscomb
Tennessee (2-0) defeated Lipscomb (0-2), 3-0, Sunday at Lipscomb Soccer Complex in Nashville, Tennessee.
Jordan Fusco, Keaton Mitchell and Kameron Simmonds scored goals for the Lady Vols. Maria Nelson and Ally Brown recorded assists for Tennessee.
“I’m very pleased with our performance today,” Tennessee head coach Joe Kirt said. “It was a great team win. We needed everyone today on a hot, Sunday afternoon. It’s difficult to win on the road, and today was no different. Lipscomb was organized and competed well. It took us a little bit to settle in, and we left a few chances out there, but we kept at it and eventually found the back of the net. Credit to our team for their mentality today, we competed at a high level and were dominant in our possession.
“We have a deep and talented team, with six different players scoring goals this week. We’ve had two good performances, which we will learn from and be better on Thursday night against ETSU back at Regal Stadium.”
Tennessee defeated California, 4-1, to kick off the 2023 season.
The Lady Vols return to Regal Soccer Stadium on Thursday versus East Tennessee State (7 p.m. EDT).
