LAFAYETTE, La. – The Ragin' Cajuns claimed the lead on a pair of goals late in the first half, then added a third in the opening minute of the second half to take a 3-0 decision over the ULM soccer team Sunday at the Ragin' Cajuns Soccer and Track Complex.

"I thought we started well today but again a few errors have cost us," ULM head coach Sean Fraser said. "We're disappointed with the result, but we need to move forward and start concentrating on Friday now with better energy and a better mentality."

ULM had an early scoring opportunity in the third minute as sophomore Juliette Reitsma fired on goal, but Cajuns' goalie Lauryn Starwood made the save up high. The Warhawks would not muster another shot until the second half.

The Cajuns took the lead in the 38th minute as Gwen Mummert headed in a corner kick from Karleen Bedre to the lower right corner of the net for the 1-0 lead.

Four minutes later, Bedre doubled the lead, scoring off an assist from Katelyn Stamps to give the Cajuns a 2-0 lead that held to halftime.

In the opening minute of the second half, Bedre struck again, scoring on a header off an assist from Una Einarsdottir to push the lead to 3-0.

The Cajuns outshot the Warhawks, 16-4. Junior Hailey Hillock had three saves in net for ULM.

The Warhawks face Texas State for the home opener at 7 p.m. Friday at Brown Stadium.
