YSU Opens Season With Tie in Double
OT
Moon Township, Pa. --
The Youngstown State women's soccer
team (0-0-1) opened its 2004 season
with a 0-0 double overtime tie
against Robert Morris on Friday
night at the North Athletic Soccer
Complex.
YSU goalie Caitlin Bestard and Robert Morris goalie Elizabeth
Moss highlighted the match by
recording nine saves apiece.
Both keepers came up with big saves
in the extra session as Bestard
snuffed a breakaway opportunity for
RMU. Moss
returned the favor when she punched
a 20-yard shot high over the
crossbar to keep the game scoreless.
The Penguins outshot the Colonials 15-8 in regulation, but
RMU held the edge in overtime,
outshooting YSU 9-3. Bestard
collected six of her nine saves in
the last 20 minutes of the game.
Sophomore Katie Duracky led the Penguins with seven shots,
while junior Sadie Brookman and
Maddie Lawther took three each.
The Penguins return to action on Sunday, August 29, when they
travel to Kent State for a 1 p.m.
match. |
