Women's soccer earns shutout win against Rose-Hulman

TERRE HAUTE, Ind. - The women's soccer team gained their first win of the 2019 season with a 1-0 non-conference shutout victory against Rose-Hulman on Wednesday night. The Panthers extended their winning streak against RHIT to two with triumphs over the Engineers in each of the last two seasons.

Arthur led Greenville with two shots, both on goal.

The Panthers (1-3-1) host Harris-Stowe on Saturday at 7 p.m. in their first home match of the 2019 season.
