DANVILLE, Ky. – Centre women's soccer took care of business Wednesday evening against Asbury, winning by a 4-0 margin at Andrew P. Amend Field.
 
The Colonels (3-0-1) got a pair of goals from senior Brooke Smithson, who bookended the scoring against the Eagles (1-2).
 
HIGHLIGHTS
- Smithson wasted little time putting Centre on the board, rifling home her first goal of the season in the third minute.
- Taylor Gebhart doubled the score in the 13th minute, taking advantage of a miscue from an Asbury defender to finish off a pass from Liz Hundley.
- Smithson added to her tally later in the half after dribbling into the box and beating the keeper. It marked her second career multi-goal effort.
- Centre had plenty of opportunities as it continued controlling possession into the second half. Eventually, those chances paid off as Elizabeth Nelson sent a rocket off her left foot and above the keeper for Centre's fourth goal.
