Game Recap: Women's Soccer |

Weller Scores in Overtime Loss For Women's Soccer

The Lindenwood women's soccer team (3-4-1, 3-2-0 GLVC) fell in overtime by a score of 2-1 on Friday night against Southwest Baptist (2-4-1, 2-3-1 GLVC) from Bolivar, Mo.

MATCH OVERVIEW
The Lions carried the pace of play early, compiling seven of the first 10 shots of the game. Southwest Baptist broke through the Lindenwood defense in the 29th minute, however, burying the ball in the lower left-hand corner giving the Bearcats a 1-0 lead

Across the first 45 minutes of play, Lindenwood recorded all three corner kicks in the half, but were unable to find the back of the net as the Lions trailed 1-0 heading into halftime.

Lindenwood pushed for the tying goal throughout the second half, as the Lions compiled the first four shots of the half, with three of those shots being on frame. The pressure finally paid off as Emma Ealey played a nice ball down the right side and Maggie Weller did the rest, as the freshman cut back, took a left footed strike that found the back of the net in the 79th minute. The game would remain 1-1 for the final 11 minutes of regulation and need overtime to decide the outcome.

In the extra time, the Bearcats registered the game winning goal at the 7:55 mark of the second OT, as Southwest Baptist converted a free kick from 25 yards out, picking up the 2-1 victory.
