WINCHESTER, Va. – Shenandoah University earned its fourth USA South Conference women's soccer victory of the season with a 3-0 shutout over N.C. Wesleyan Saturday afternoon on Sprint Field at Shentel Stadium.

Freshman Brittany Butcher gave the Hornets (9-5-3, 4-2-1 USA South) all of the offense they would need with her goal off of a Hannah Oakes assist 29:26 into the contest against the Lady Bishops (1-16, 1-6).

Butcher added her name to the scoresheet a second time just under eight minutes later, setting up sophomore Stormie Malik for an insurance goal at the 37:21 mark.

Freshman Keri Johnson closed the book on scoring for the day with her unassisted tally 2:37 into the second half.

Shenandoah held NCWC to just two shots on the day, and Hornets keepers Kat Terza, Kathleen MacKnight and Brooke Strickler had two make just one save (by MacKnight) to post the combined shutout.

SU took 20 shots of its own and won all seven of the game's corners.

The Hornets continue this homestand Sunday with a 2:00 contest against Christopher Newport. Senior Lauren Morris will be honored before the game.
