Two days after suffering its first Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC) match of the season, the Centre College women's soccer team got back in the win column, defeating Oglethorpe University 2-0, Sunday, Oct. 8, in Danville, Ky.
With the win, Centre improves to 9-2 overall and 3-1 in the SCAC, while Oglethorpe falls to 4-6-1 overall and 0-3 in league play.
