Box Score

MOUNT VERNON, Ga. -- Tassia Augusto scored three goals and Chloe Roberts added two goals and three assists as the University of North Alabama defeated Brewton-Parker 6-3 on the road for the Lions' 13th win of the season.

UNA, now 13-1-1, allowed a season-high three goals on defense after giving up just nine goals in its previous 14 matches. But the offense clicked to the tune of a 5-1 lead at intermission and added a security goal in the second half after Brewton-Parker closed the gap to 5-3.

"It's always nice to get a win, especially when you didn't play that well," said UNA head coach Graham WInkworth. "It was one of our poorer performances of the year, but the good thin is that our players realize that and they are ready to get back to work and get focused on our big GSC match at Harding on Friday."

Chelsea Ross got UNA on the board early with her third goal of the year, assisted by Roberts. Augusto then scored for the 16th time in 2009 off an assist from Ross to make it 2-0. Augusto's next goal came off an assist from Roberts, then Roberts scored on an assist from Ross, UNA's final goal of the first half was by Roberts with Hollie Loud assisting. Augusto scored her third goal of the night in the second half as Roberts assisted.

For the season, Roberts has now scored 23 goals and has six assists. Her 23 goals total continues to extend her UNA single-season record. With her three goals, Augusto now has 18 goals and five assists in 2009. She now has 53 career goals as she also extends her school record.

UNA returns to Gulf South Conference play Friday when the Lions travel to Harding.
