Tamara Greene (Piscataway, N.J./Piscataway) recorded a natural hat-trick as the Lincoln University women's soccer team recorded their second victory over Trinity College in the past eight days, handing the Tigers a 4-0 defeat Wednesday afternoon at Lions Stadium  in Lincoln University, Pennsylvania.

The win improves Lincoln's record to 3-11 while Trinity falls to 6-9.

Greene put the Lions on the board early with her team-leading seventh goal of the season just six minutes into game, taking a pass from Kayla Butts (Lansdowne, Pa./Bonner-Prendergast Catholic) and one-timing past the Tigers goaltender.    Lincoln's defense, meanwhile was limiting the Tigers to just one shot for much of the first half.  Greene added her second goal in the 45th minute, as she drove down the right side and dribbled a shot past TC's Helen Woolf to give Lincoln a 2-0 lead.  The Lions finished the half outshooting the Tigers 7-2.
