App State soccer drew 2-2 with the Radford Highlanders Thursday night at the Ted Mackorell Soccer Complex. The Mountaineers secured a subsequent 1-0 win against the University of Louisiana Monroe in their first Sun Belt Conference match Sunday morning, marking their second win of the season.
On Thursday evening, it seemed as though App State soccer finally hit its stride despite the cold conditions. The Black and Gold scored two goals, both of which came from junior forward Izzi Wood in the first half.
The opening 45 minutes for the Mountaineers were blistering. Coach Aimee Haywood’s side was defensively clinical, alert on the attack and controlled the match at a breakneck pace.
