Box Score CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. --- The Chattanooga Mocs women's soccer team kicked off their Southern Conference schedule emphatically Thursday, securing a 4-0 shutout victory against Wofford at Finley Stadium.

Richvalsky picked up her goal later in the half. She came into the box from right to left and her shot hit off the base of the far post, bouncing out. However, the Terriers were unable to corral the shot and it made its way back and crossed the line to make it 2-0 in the 28^th minute.

Zoey Mize picked up a pair of assists in the second half as the Mocs extended its lead with a pair of goals for the 4-0 win.

The game was all but decided when Reese Wilson headed in the final goal off a corner kick in the 86^th minute. Mize sent her corner kick into the box and Wilson headed in the shot form about 10 yards out into the top right corner.
