RIO GRANDE, Ohio -- Four different Blue Raiders scored as the Lindsey Wilson College women's soccer team beat host University of Rio Grande (Ohio) 5-0 today at Evan E. Davis Field.

Mia Persson scored twice while Katarina Simic, Cecilia Ekstrand and Elisha Fry each found the back of the net in the win. No. 3 Lindsey Wilson out-shot the RedStorm (4-7, 1-4 in the Mid-South Conference) 33-2, including 16-2 in shots on goal.

Ekstrand scored her second goal in as many games and her third of the season at the 47:47 mark off Laerke Lillelund Michaelsen's first of two assists on the night.
