Clayton State’s Paskell and Collins
Named AstroTurf PBC Players of the Week
by Gid Rowell, Athletics
Last week two Laker women’s soccer
players were recognized by the Peach Belt
Conference office for their fine play.
Clayton State forward Denisha Paskell
and defender Saidhbh Collins were named
the AstroTurf PBC Player of the Week and
AstroTurf PBC Defender of the Week,
respectively.
Paskell scored three goals in the Lakers'
two wins over North Greenville and UNC
Pembroke. She began by scoring the
golden goal five minutes into the first
overtime period on the road at North
Greenville. She followed that up by scor-
ing the first and third goals of Clayton
State's 4-0 win over UNC Pembroke, the
Braves' first conference loss of the year.
A freshman from McDonough, Ga.,
Paskell leads the PBC with nine goals
scored this season and also leads the
league with 18 points.
Collins, a sophomore from Dublin, guided
the Laker defense to a pair of wins last
week, giving up just one goal in 184 min-
utes. Clayton State held North Greenville
to six shots, three on goal, with one score
in a 2-1 overtime win. She also added an
assist on the Lakers' first goal.
Collins followed that up with Clayton
State's fourth shutout in a 4-0 win over
UNC Pembroke. The Lakers held the
Braves to four shots on goal. Collins
leads the PBC with six assists on the year
and Clayton State is fourth in the PBC
with a 1.17 goals allowed average.
Clayton State Battles
Georgia College to 1-1 Tie
The Clayton State women’s soccer team
battled Georgia College to a 1-1 double
overtime tie Saturday in Peach Belt
Conference action at Laker Field.
Trailing 1-0 in the second half, the Lakers
leveled the match in the 75th minute at
one apiece on a goal by Jahmela Williams,
her second of the season. After a ball from
Jency Ramirez, Williams quickly turned
and fired a shot from 20 yards out that ric-
ocheted off the post and into the back of
the net.
Clayton State outshot Georgia 8-2 in the
second half and several chances but were
unable to find the net for the game-win-
ning goal. For the match, the Lakers
allowed only one shot on goal, which was
a score in first half.
Georgia College jumped out to a quick
lead 28 minutes into play as Ashley
Veilleux scored on a header off a corner
kick. Abby Dalton served the ball in the
box and was credited with the assist on
the play.
With the tie, Clayton State stands at 6-3-2
overall and 3-0-1 in Peach Belt play.
Georgia College’s record is 4-5-1 and 1-3-
1 in league play. The Lakers will return to
action on Wednesday, traveling to face
Armstrong in a 3:30 p.m. Peach Belt
Conference match in Savannah, GA.
The Lakers finished with a 16-7 advan-
tage in shots and a 6-2 edge in corner
kicks.
