BOX SCORE

BUIES CREEK, N.C. – An 87th minute penalty kick helped Campbell earn a come-from-behind win over Radford women's soccer, 2-1, in each team's regular season finale.

The Highlanders (13-5, 8-2 Big South) conclude the regular season with a share of the Big South regular season crown with Winthrop and will be the top seed in the tournament, matching up with No. 8 UNC Asheville at 2 p.m. Thursday afternoon.

A foul in the box gave Campbell (14-4-2, 7-1-2 Big South) a penalty kick at 86:48 and Taylor Brown converted for the game-winning score.

For the third straight match, sophomore Sahar Aflaki (Gainesville, Va./Battlefield) found the back of the net for the Highlanders. On the second shot of the game, Aflaki's strike in the 17th minute gave Radford a 1-0 lead that was set up on passes from Maryellen Derenda (Manassas, Va./Osbourn Park) and Sydney Golden (Lexington, Ky./Paul L. Dunbar).

Golden tied Julie Ruh'e (Monrovia, Md./Urbana) for the team-lead with five assists, while Aflaki netted her fifth goal of the year, second on the team.

The Fighting Camels countered Radford's first goal with a score just before the half from Michelle Procaccini. Procaccini collected a loose ball at the top of the box and fired top shelf for the equalizer.

After taking only three shots in the first half, Campbell dialed up the pressure, taking 12 attempts in the second frame. Goalkeeper Che' Brown (Manassas, Va./Manassas Park) came up with all five saves in the second half.
