The Charlotte 49ers women’s soccer team dominated from start to finish against a solid Louisiana Tech team Friday night, winning 4-0 behind a hat trick from senior Katie O’Neill on senior night at Transamerica Field.
O’Neill wasted no time putting the 49ers (8-5-1, 4-1-1 C-USA) on top, scoring the fastest goal in Charlotte history just 21 seconds into the match, while also scoring her first goal of the season. But it wouldn’t be her last.
Almost 15 minutes later, senior Kaitlin Walker found Megan Green at the far corner, centering in to star-studded Martha Thomas, who flicked it from the near post over the keeper’s head, giving Charlotte a 2-0 lead over a 10-4-1, 2-3 C-USA Lady Techster team.
