NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Vanderbilt’s unbeaten streak was snapped Sunday in a 2-1 defeat to LSU at the Vanderbilt Soccer Complex.
The Commodores, who entered conference play unbeaten through their first seven contests, fell behind in the 13th minute as the Tigers capitalized off a corner kick to take a 1-0 lead.

Peyton Cutshall came on as a sub in the 35th and made an immediate impact. Cutshall settled the ball to her right outside the box and fired a strike from long range, beating the LSU keeper for her first goal on the season and 10th of her career.
