The Bisons traveled to Carrollton, GA. to play West Georgia in a match in which they won 3-0 against the Wolves.
 
Lipscomb was dominant from the first whistle, setting the pace to force West Georgia to keep up with them. For much of the match, the Bisons controlled possession without much pressure. Lipscomb was able to post ten shots with two on goal and four corner kicks before the Wolves were able to record their first offensive stat of the match with a shot in the 39' minute.
 
Although the Bisons were clearly in control for most of the match, Lipscomb was unable to convert until the 69' minute. Kiara Pralle recorded her thirteenth goal of the season to open the scoring action for both teams. West Georgia's goalkeeper was taking a goal kick and Pralle was able to intercept the ball and score while the Wolves were caught off guard. Pralle ended the night with three shots, two on goal, and one goal.
   
Freshman Katie Brightwell converted the second goal of the night for the Bisons and the first goal of her career in the 73' minute. Alivia Carapazza took a free kick for the Bisons and was able to find Brightwell open just outside the keeper's box. Brightwell headed the ball directly off the free kick from A.Carapazza to put the ball in the right side of the goal.
   
Just over three minutes later, Brightwell scored again in the 77' minute to put the Bisons up 3-0. Bella Carapazza dribbled the ball up the field and found an open Brightwell, who managed to score past three West Georgia defenders and the keeper for her second career goal and second goal on the night. B.Carapazza's assist was her third of the season and fifth in her career. Brightwell ended the night with two shots, each on target and resulting in goals.
   
The Bisons will stay on the road to play Queens on Oct. 20th for a kickoff time of 12:00 PM CT.
