FULTON, Miss. – The Lady Indians picked up a milestone victory over Jones College on Friday.
The No. 20 Lady Indians (9-2-1, 4-2-1 MACCC) picked up its second win of the season over a ranked opponent with a 2-0 win over No. 5 and defending national champion Jones College (8-3, 4-3 MACCC).
It was the first win over the Lady Bobcats since 2008.
Isobel Kinsella (Gloucestershire, United Kingdom) set the tone for the Lady Indians with a goal 45 seconds into the match. Millie Webb (Rugby, England) push the lead out to 2-0 when she sent home a rebound in the 26th minute, a carbon copy of Kinsella's goal.
