CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. -- The Samford University soccer team exploded for three goals in 13 minutes Friday as the Bulldogs rallied for a 3-1 road victory against the Austin Peay Lady Govs in a battle of former Ohio Valley Conference opponents held at Morgan Brothers Field.
Samford's Amanda Abbott highlighted the triumph as she scored two of the Bulldogs' three goals in a span of just two minutes and six seconds. After scoring the game-winning goal at exactly 29:08 in the first half, Samford's speedy native of Marietta, Ga., notched her third score of the 2014 campaign just over two minutes later at the 31:14 mark to give the Bulldogs their decisive 3-1 advantage.
Samford (5-4) dictated a majority of Friday's contest and handily outshot Austin Peay (1-7) by a final count of 19-9.
With their victory, the Bulldogs remained undefeated against the Lady Govs and improved their all-time record in the series to 6-0-1.
Austin Peay struck first Friday and garnered a quick 1-0 advantage in the match behind a fourth-minute goal from Gina Fabbro. On the score, Fabbro headed a pass from Claire Pultz into the lower left corner of the net from 15 yards out.
Despite falling behind early, Samford rebounded nicely in the 19th minute as sophomore Taylor Borman registered her second goal of the season with an equalizing goal to even the score at 1-1. On Borman's score, she gathered a perfectly-placed crossing pass from junior Hallie Georgi and found the back of the net.
Samford tallied all three of its goals in the first half of play Friday. The Bulldogs' offensive attack proved to be relentless in the opening 45 minutes of action as they outshot Austin Peay, 12-4, in the first stanza.
Defensively, Samford only allowed four shots on goal as true freshman Anna Maddox finished the contest with four key saves.
The Bulldogs' Jermaine Seoposenwe paced Samford's offensive game plan with six of the team's 19 shot attempts. She also notched her second assist of the season as she helped initiate Abbott's final goal of the evening.
Samford has played well on the road this year and notched its fourth victory when playing away from Birmingham, Ala. The Bulldogs boast a 4-2 record on the road this season and finished its current three-match stretch with an impressive 2-1 mark.
The Samford University soccer team will next be in action Sunday at 2 p.m. (CDT) as the Bulldogs return home to the Samford Track and Soccer Stadium for a key non-conference showdown against the Kennesaw State Owls.
