FLORENCE, Ala. – Chloe Richards scored two goals and the University of North Alabama defense held West Georgia without a shot on goal as the Lions picked up a 2-0 Gulf South Conference win over the Wolves.

 

With the win, UNA is now 8-1-1 overall and 4-1 in the GSC. West Georgia falls to 5-5-1 and 3-3-1 in the GSC.

Richards now has 16 goals this season and 57 during her career at UNA.

 

North Alabama out-shot West Georgia 20 to seven. UWG's Katie Miklassich recorded five saves and allowed two goals.
