Caitlin Gordon broke a 2-2 tie with an 84th-minute goal to lift Birmingham-Southern past High Point, 3-2, Thursday night in a Big South women's soccer battle of Panthers in Birmingham.

Lena Svensson and Reine DeLaat scored for HPU, while Anne McIntyre had a pair of first-half goals for BSC.

High Point falls to 7-7-0 (3-3-0 in Big South play), while BSC won its fourth-straight and improves to 7-7-2 (5-1-1).

Courtney Noel made seven saves for HPU.

McIntyre got BSC on the board with a tally at the 5:48 mark of the first period when she collected a ball sent from the left by Gordon and scored from 10 yards out.

High Point answered 30 seconds later when Svensson scored her third goal of the year off an assist from Jen Evans to knot the score at 1-1.

McIntyre helped BSC re-gain the lead in the 13th minute, capitalizing on a crossed ball from Jess Smith to grab a 2-1 lead, but the cushion wouldn't last. HPU got an equalizer from DeLaat in the 31st minute on a free kick. It was her first goal of the season and her two-year career.

The score remained tied at 2-2 through halftime and for most of the second period, until Gordon's goal at the 83:12 mark. It was her fifth of the season and came on a breakaway from midfield as she dribbled through several High Point defenders and punched the ball past Noel for her third game-winner of the year.

BSC out-shot HPU by a 16-11 count. Ryan Hays led High Point with a pair of shots.

The Panthers host South Carolina State Saturday night at 7:00 at Albion Millis Stadium.
