CAMDEN, N.J. (Oct. 12, 2019) – Sophomore Lindsay Hernandez scored the game's only goal off a second-half corner kick by senior Sarah Zuzulock as the Rutgers University-Camden women's soccer team edged Rutgers University-Newark, 1-0, in a New Jersey Athletic Conference game here Saturday afternoon.

 
Camden improves to 4-8 overall and 3-2 in the NJAC, posting its fourth victory in the last six games. Newark falls to 8-6-1 overall and 0-3-1 in the NJAC.
 
Camden leads the all-time series, 14-3-3 and has won four of its last five games against Newark.
 
The Scarlet Raptors had a pair of good chances to score in the opening half, but Newark senior goalie Heidi Paulson saved a pair of high shots by batting them off the crossbar. Paulson played the opening 33:03 of the contest before being injured in a scramble near the goal mouth. She was replaced by junior Jasmin Erichsen.
 
Both teams had four shots in the scoreless opening half and, although the Scarlet Raptors had a 6-0 shots advantage in the second half, the game seemed destined for overtime until the Scarlet Raptors broke the deadlock. Zuzulock took a corner kick from the right side and sent a feed to the top of the box, where Hernandez finished off for her team-leading second game-winning goal at 80:49. It was her third goal overall and the second assist for Zuzulock.
 
Rutgers-Camden finished with a 10-4 advantage in shots and a 9-4 lead in corner kicks. Raptor sophomore goalie Natalie Eberhardt made two saves to collect her first shutout of the season. Paulson and Erichsen had two saves apiece.
 
Rutgers-Camden returns to NJAC action Wednesday with a 6 p.m. game at Rowan University.
