KINSTON -- Rosewood's Erin Thibodeau and Stephanie Behrend scored three goals each to guide the Eagles to season-opening, 6-0 win at Kinston on Monday.

Rachel McCormick dished out three assists, while Clare Narron added one assist.

Rosewood's defense limited the Vikings (0-1) to zero shots on goal for the game.

"The midfield did a good job of controlling the ball and setting up the forwards," Rosewood assistant coach Brian Brewer said. "They looked really good. It was a just a good first game."

GREENVILLE -- Charles B. Aycock never found the net as Greenville Rose claimed a 4-0 win over the Golden Falcons on Monday.
