Hartsville, S.C. - After giving up the tying goal with one second to go in the first half, the Lenoir-Rhyne women's soccer team exploded for four second half goals to defeat Coker 5-1 on Wednesday night in a road conference tilt. All of the goals for the Bears were scored by freshmen, with Leonie Proessl picking up her first career hat trick and Evan O'Leary scoring the other two goals. The Bears are now 3-0 in the SAC.
