Caldwell County senior Aliya Towns continues to move up the Lady Tigers’ career and single-season goals lists.

Towns helped those numbers with four more tallies Monday night as Caldwell blanked Graves County 4-0 at Butler Stadium in Princeton.

It was Caldwell’s first win over the Lady Eagles since 2002 — a streak of 14 straight games. The teams did play to a scoreless tie in 2022.

It looked like the 2025 matchup might be heading in that direction as well when the squads went to halftime 0-0.

But Towns scored three goals in a 7-minute stretch early in the second half to put the Lady Tigers well on their way to their 12th win of the season.

Towns netted the first goal of the night in the 43rd minute, getting help from Kiya Sears to break the deadlock.

Less than 2 minutes later, Towns found the net again. This time, Makenzie French picked up the assist.

Towns converted a penalty kick in the 49th minute.

Towns finished off the night with another goal in the 73rd minute off an assist from Paisley Hooks.

Towns has now scored 31 goals this season and has 63 for her career. Both of those numbers are seventh on those respective lists at Caldwell.

The Lady Tiger records are held by Maura Hughes, who tallied 39 goals in 2004 and finished her career with 127.

However, three more goals would push Towns to fifth all-time and sixth on the single-season list.

Freshman goalkeeper Shylee Hinchee made four saves against Graves while posting her fifth shutout of the season.

The Lady Eagles are 2-11-1.

Graves now leads the all-time series 13-6-1.

Caldwell (12-5) will play at home again on Tuesday when it hosts Fort Campbell as part of a girls and boys doubleheader.
