BOWLING GREEN, Ky. -- The Samford University soccer team received an early goal from senior forward Jermaine Seoposenwe and used a brilliant defensive performance to record at 1-0 road victory against the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers on Sunday in a key non-conference showdown held at the WKU Soccer Complex.

With the victory, Samford (2-5-1) earned its first road win of the season and opened its five-match visiting stretch in impressive fashion. The Bulldogs' next four matches will be played at UC Davis, Saint Mary's (CA), Western Carolina and ETSU.

Western Kentucky (3-4-0) finished the weekend with an 0-2 home record. On Friday, the Hilltoppers came up short in a similar 1-0 loss to Vanderbilt.

Seoposenwe's game-winning goal, the school-record 31^st of her career, occurred at exactly 5:59 into the match and was set up by Kaitlyn Orman on a corner kick. Orman, Samford's talented redshirt junior, lofted a high, perfectly-placed ball into the box where Seoposenwe skied high to head into the back of the net.

Orman's assist proved to be her first of the season, while Seoposenwe's goal was her team-leading fifth.

The Bulldogs outshot Western Kentucky, 16-6, and out-tallied the Hilltoppers in shots on goal, 8-2. Samford goalkeeper Anna Maddox finished with two saves and earned her first complete-game shutout of the season.

The Samford University soccer team will next be in action Friday at 6 p.m. (CT) as the Bulldogs begin a two-match California road swing against the UC Davis Aggies. The game will be held at the Aggie Soccer Field in Davis, California, which is located just a bit northwest of the Bay Area.
