CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. --- Morgan Shelton snared a goal late in the game to lift the Lady Mocs to a 1-0 victory over Tennessee Tech at the North River Soccer Complex Wednesday afternoon.
Shelton took a pass from D.K. Henry on the left side. Tennessee Tech's keeper Kaitlyn Thacker came out of the net to stop the goal, but Shelton got past her and nabbed the game winner in the 72nd minute.
Chattanooga controlled most of the action throughout the game outshooting the Golden Eagles 13-5 and had five shots on goal to TTU's one. The win moved Chattanooga to 3-3-1 overall as they prepare for Alabama's Crimson Tide Classic this weekend in Tuscaloosa. The Lady Mocs will take on host Alabama Friday at 8:30 p.m.
Chattanooga keeper Allie Preston had just one save on the night and earned her third shutout this year.
Tennessee Tech falls to 1-7 overall and will return home for a four-game home stand starting Sunday with a match against UNC Asheville.
