HUNTINGTON, W. Va. - Smith Cathey's goal in the 66th minute stood up for Georgia Southern women's soccer as the Eagles claimed a 1-0 Sun Belt road win at Marshall on Sunday afternoon in Huntington, W. Va.
The Eagles (5-7-1, 2-2 SBC) improved to 2-0 on the road in league games this year while handing Marshall (3-5-2, 1-2-1 SBC) its first home loss of the year in five games. Georgia Southern remains on the road for its next action, taking on Old Dominion on Thursday at 2 p.m. in Norfolk.
Marshall nearly got on the board in the first minute of play as Bailey Fisher uncorked a shot from the left side, but Eagle goalkeeper Quinn Wilson made the leaping save, one of two saves in the first half for the sophomore.
