Box Score DAHLONEGA – ­The University of North Georgia women's soccer team defeated Clayton State 2-0 at the UNG Soccer Field at Lynn Cottrell Park for their sixth win of the season. 
 
The UNG defense recorded their second consecutive shutout despite missing goalkeeper Sierra Fowler, in the match. Ciara Duff and Faith Bullied combined for the shutout in net. 
 
A red card on Clayton State after a foul from behind on a streaking Abbie Crane changed the game and allowed UNG to find more and more opportunities as the match continued. Arielle Aronoff opened up the scoring just one minute after the Lakers' red card put them at a one-player disadvantage. 
 
Aronoff's shot hit the bottom of the crossbar and bounced in to give the Nighthawks the lead. Crane added her third goal of the week to make it a 2-0 game five minutes later in the 31st minute. 
 
Clayton State goalkeeper Trinity Chastain had a career game in goal for the Lakers. Chastain recorded 13 saves in the game and kept the Nighthawks quiet for the entire second half despite being down to 10 players.
