NASHUA, N.H. - Junior forward Mikayla Elliott (Nashua, N.H.) netted a pair of goals to lead the Simmons College women's soccer team to a 3-0 victory over host Rivier University in a Great Northeast Athletic Conference match this afternoon at Raider Field in Nashua, N.H. The Sharks have won four straight and extend their unbeaten string to five consecutive matches and improve to 5-3-2 overall and 4-2-1 in league play, while the Raiders fall to 1-6-1 and 0-5-1.

The pair repeated their effort when Gammon found Elliott for her second goal of the day and fifth of the season at 61:08 of the second half.
