Bears put on show in 10-0 win over Mars Hill

Hickory, N.C. - The Lenoir-Rhyne women's soccer team put on an offensive showcase on Wednesday night, taking down Mars Hill 10-0.

 Katie Durham finished the game with four goals, the most for a Bear since Garcelle Alequine picked up four against Coker in 2014. Her 10 total points were just three away from the school record.
