Baumgardt, Mack Score in Shutout Win Over Wolves

CARROLLTON, Ga. – Alec Baumgardt tallied a goal and an assist and Aniyah Mack also found the back of the net in Austin Peay State University soccer's 2-0 shutout win against West Georgia in Atlantic Sun Conference play, Sunday, at University Field. 

After a pair of early attempts by West Georgia (2-14, 1-9 ASUN), Austin Peay (7-5-5, 5-2-3 ASUN) fired six-straight shots, with the final coming on a breakaway score by Mac in the 28th minute. Baumgardt found the sophomore forward who racing past the Wolves' defenders, as Mack slid the ball to the left of a diving UWG goalkeeper.

The Governors then extended their advantage on the match's following shot, with Ellie Dreas dishing the ball to Baumgardt, who netted her sixth score of the season. 

Austin Peay's defense held West Georgia to just its two shots – which it tallied in the opening 10 minutes – throughout the remainder of the first half, as the Govs led in attempts, 8-2 in the opening period. 

The two sides combined for just four shots in a defensively-led final 45 minutes, with APSU goalkeeper Katie Bahn making her afternoon's lone save in the 66th minute.

Up next, the Governors return home for the regular-season finale where they'll host Lipscomb in a 6 p.m., Friday match at Morgan Bros. Field.
