The Quincy University women's soccer team came close to a school record Tuesday night in handing Culver-Stockton a 15-0 loss in the Pepsi Great River Cup match at Ayers Field in Canton, Mo.

The Lady Hawks' goal output was the second-highest in school history, falling just short of the school record of 17 set in a win over Illinois College in 1992.

Becky Fleming scored just over two minutes into the game for QU (4-2). Fleming and Beth Hettenhausen each scored twice for the Lady Hawks. Hettenhausen earned game MVP honors.

Twelve different Lady Hawks scored as Quincy outshot C-SC (1-6) 47-3. Since the advent of the Great River Cup, QU has outscored C-SC 40-1 in four matches.

In the men's game, Jack Wedemeier put QU on top with a goal in the 19th minute as the Hawks went on to capture a 5-1 victory.

Wedemeier added another goal in the second half to earn game MVP honors as the Hawks improved to 5-0.

Grant Ellison, Andy Kling and Ryan Hirtz also scored for the Hawks, who are now 3-1 in Great River Cup matchups.

Bryan Fahs scored in the 89th minute for C-SC (1-6).

HLG sweeps: The Hannibal-LaGrange College men's and women's soccer teams picked up American Midwest Conference wins over Harris-Stowe in St. Louis.

The HLG men's team, ranked 10th in the nation, Sergi Beltrol connected on a bicycle kick for the game's only goal. Keeper Jeff Jelinek and the Trojan defense recorded their sixth shutout in as many games as HLG improved to 6-0 overall and 1-0 in the AMC.

The HLG women's team rolled to a 10-0 victory. Leslie Gordon had three goals and Jasman Edmond two for the Lady Trojans (3-3-1, 1-1 AMC).
