The Hilltoppers managed to score two goals on four shots on goal compared to the Bruins' one goal on eight shots on goal.
HOW IT HAPPENED
The first 20 minutes were back and forth in ball control with the teams trading possessions. WKU broke the tie at the 22 minute mark as Kora Kipley found Rebecca Roth for the score.
Nearly 34 minutes in, WKU capitalized on a shot chance again as the senior Camryn Davis found freshman Makenna Egan for the goal to give the Tops a two goal lead just over 10 minutes before the break.
In the second half, WKU managed two shots compared to Belmont's nine. Despite the disparity, WKU only allowed one goal which came in the 85th minute. WKU would fend off one more attack and retain possession for the final few minutes of the friendly.
