Campbell at USC Upstate box score Campbell at USC Upstate box score

SPARTANBURG, S.C. - Marisa Muller set up CU's first goal, then scored her second game-winner in a week's time and Campbell defeated USC Upstate 2-1 Saturday in Atlantic Sun Conference women's soccer action at County University Stadium.

The win was Campbell's eighth by a one-goal margin this season and lifted CU to 9-6 overall, 4-2 in the A-Sun.  Campbell has won three-straight - all one-goal decisions - including last Saturday's 1-0 victory at Florida Gulf Coast when Muller headed home an 89th minute corner kick.

On Saturday, Kirsty Meyer put the Camels in front in the 22nd minute when she connected on Muller's corner for her second goal of the season.

The Spartans equalized through Alyssa Roegner after 59:02 of play when she tallied her first goal of the year after Camel keeper Jamie Panfil lost the handle on a rebound.

Upstate's Dior McGruder hit the crossbar in the 17th minute and again in the 59th.  However, the Camels held the Spartans without a shot in the final 30 minutes of play.

Muller's fourth goal of the year - and third game-winner - came in the 72nd minute on Olga Ekblom's assist.

The decision provided Campbell with its highest A-Sun wins total (4) since the 2005 club won six en route to the conference final.  Upstate fell to 0-14 overall, 0-5 in the league, and lost its 22nd-straight game.

Upstate finished with a 13-10 advantage in shot, but Campbell had seven shots on goal, compared to just five for the hosts.

Panfil had four saves, while Brittany Daughtry made five in the Upstate nets.

Campbell returns to action on Thursday when the Camels host Jacksonville in a 7:00 p.m. kick-off at the Eakes Athletic Complex.
