HARTSVILLE, S.C. – The Coker College women's soccer team suffered a 5-0 loss to Lincoln Memorial University in its first-ever South Atlantic Conference match on Saturday (Sept. 14).

The Cobras and Railsplitters played a hard fought opening 20 minutes, with neither team gaining an advantage. Lincoln Memorial finally broke the stalemate in the 22nd minute when Michelle Hunter scored the first goal of the game off a deflection. The Railsplitters then went on to score four more unanswered goals, two in more in the first half and another two in the second.
