• The Lions left no doubt from the beginning, scoring early in the first half, early in the second half and a final exclamation mark to make it 3-0 late on a penalty kick.
• The three-goal performance from Piedmont marks the most goals it has scored against Covenant since the 2013 season, which was the only other time in the matchup history in which the Lions reached at least three goals.
• Sierra Judson got the scoring started for Piedmont, unleashing a rocket from just outside the box that the Covenant goalkeeper was able to get hands on but not enough to keep it out of the net as the Lions built a 1-0 lead in the 10th minute.
• Out of the locker room, Piedmont asserted its will again. This time, it was freshman Genesis Gamez who dribbled her way through what seemed like the entire Covenant team, finishing off the play with a beautiful cross that was put away by senior Jocelyn Maseda.
• With the 2-0 advantage, the Lions continued to pour it on, earning a penalty kick opportunity in the 67th minute, with sophomore Summer Huskin converting the opportunity for her first career goal.
