Brewton-Parker College Thursday afternoon in Mount Vernon, Georgia.
The victory put the Grizzlies on the winning side of the season's ledger, at 4-3, after starting the season with three consecutive losses.
Armenta scored both of her goals in the first half. She first struck in the 39th minute after receiving a pass from freshman
Ola Orelesi. Then, Armenta added an unassisted goal just before halftime.
GGC has scored six goals in the first halves during its last two matches.
Freshman
Lauren Reid tallied her first collegiate goal in the 82nd minute to cap the team's scoring for the day.

Thursday marked the third shutout of the season for GGC's goalkeepers. Freshman
Matilda Johansson and sophomore
Matilda Waldt each played a half in front of goal to keep the Barons off the scoreboard. The duo each made one save in the match.
"This was a gutsy performance against a big and athletic team who was playing with some confidence. Scoring our second goal just before halftime gave us some breathing room. It is good to go on the road and get a clean sheet (shutout). I am pleased with how both of our goalkeepers (
Matilda Johansson and
Matilda Waldt) performed today," said Head Coach
Dr. Mike Giuliano.
The Grizzlies padded its lead against Brewton-Parker just before halftime when sophomore
