Olivia Dumphy

YOUNG HARRIS, Ga. – On a rainy night on the other side of Blood Mountain, Olivia Dumphy scored two goals off free kicks to lead the No. 18 University of North Georgia women’s soccer team past Young Harris, 2-0, Wednesday.

Dumphy’s first free kick came in the 20th minute when she pushed one past the keeper low and in the left corner to put UNG up, 1-0. Nearly 20 minutes later, another free kick was awarded to UNG at the top corner of the penalty box, and Dumphy curled one home inside the far post.

As the rain fell harder in the second half, North Georgia kept Young Harris at bay, allowing very few opportunities for the Mountain Lions to find a goal.

NOTES

• This was Dumphy’s second career brace, scoring twice against Converse in her second career appearance back in 2016 against Converse.
• North Georgia now has 10 clean sheets on the year, tying the program record set in 2015.
• The Nighthawks outshot YHC in the contest, 19-6.
