Box Score COLUMBIA, KY. - The No. 16-ranked Lindsey Wilson women's soccer team (1-1, 0-0 MSC) upset undefeated No. 9-ranked John Brown (Ark.) (3-1, 0-0 SAC) 2-1 Saturday evening.

The scoring began in the 37th minute with a great pass into the box by Yudaya Nakayenze to Emma Lindell for her first goal of the season.
It didn't take long for the Blue Raiders to double their lead in the second half as Nakayenze this time hit a great pass that cut through the defense, finding Larissa Modesto De Souza who put a shot into the lower left corner to score her first career goal with Lindsey Wilson.
The Golden Eagles cut the deficit in the 73rd minute after a bad pass back by Sasha Hearn which rolled back into the net. The Blue Raiders held on in the end and got the upset win to bounce back after a disappointing loss to open their season.
