The Charleston Southern women's soccer squad delivered a stunning 9-1 victory over Columbia College on Tuesday night, a result that instantly entered the program's annals as one of its most prolific offensive outings.
Four players — Campbell Taylor, Danika Birch, Nina Meyer and Jillian Brown — each found the back of the net twice, turning the match into a showcase of depth and scoring versatility.
Taylor's brace marked her debut goals for the Buccaneers and her first career two‑goal performance, while Birch's second‑half strikes gave her a season‑opening brace and cemented her place among the team's early leaders.
Meyer and Brown also recorded their first collegiate goals and braces, underscoring the fresh talent infusion that helped the team eclipse previous scoring benchmarks.
The Buccaneers' attacking rhythm was evident in the 41 total shots, a tally that ties for fourth‑most in a single match in school history, and the nine assists highlighted a fluid, unselfish offense.
Possession swung heavily in Charleston Southern's favor at 59 percent, and the team earned six corner kicks, further pressuring the opposition and controlling the tempo.
