Ole Miss continued its unbeaten start to the season with a 2‑0 victory over UAB at PNC Field, completing a three‑match road swing without conceding a goal.

Second Half Surge

The breakthrough came after the break when Sarah Granno opened the scoring, her first goal of the campaign, and Becca Skinner added a penalty‑kick finish that doubled the lead and marked her inaugural Rebel goal.

Between the strikes, goalkeeper Taylor Prigge made four saves, including two in the second half, preserving the clean sheet and showcasing the team's defensive cohesion.

The Rebels outshot the Blazers 13‑5, held 52 % possession and earned eight corner kicks while limiting UAB to a single attempt, a statistical dominance that underscored their growing confidence.

Freshman midfielder Teaghan Irvin recorded her first career assist in her opening start, a subtle but pivotal contribution that helped shape the second‑half attack.

Looking ahead, Ole Miss returns home to face Memphis, aiming to extend its four‑match winning streak as the squad rides the momentum of a defensively solid performance.
