WILMINGTON, North Carolina – Seniors Lindsey Byrne (W.A. Hough H.S./Charlotte, N.C.) and Maddie McCormick (Alexis I. DuPont H.S./Newark, Del.) each scored a goal as UNCW (5-3-0) extended its win streak to four straight games with a 2-0 victory over Campbell (4-3-0) to close out the Hilton Garden Inn Mayfaire Invitational at UNCW Soccer Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

The Seahawks, who have won five of their last six games, earned the tournament championship for the fourth straight year after earning a goal differential tiebreaker over St. John's, which also finished the weekend with a 2-0-0 record after a 3-0 win over Richmond.
 Byrne gave UNCW a 1-0 lead in the 16th minute when she scored her first goal of the season off an assist from junior defender Lauren Nalevaiko (Ardrey Kell H.S./Charlotte, N.C.). With 21:36 remaining, McCormick upped the advantage to 2-0 when she scored an unassisted goal on a breakaway.

Junior goalkeeper Carolyn Huddy (Lake Norman H.S./Huntersville, N.C.) made two saves to earn her second consecutive shutout as the Seahawks limited Campbell to just four shots.
