WS Loses Heartbreaker, 2-1, in Double OT

Huston-Tillotson scored the game-winning goal with 40 seconds remaining the double overtime to edge Schreiner, 2-1.  The NAIA (scholarship) Lady Rams had their hands full throughout the match with the injury-depleted Mountaineers (0-3).

At halftime, the two teams were locked in a scoreless tie.  HTU scored in the second half to take a 1-0 lead but SU was able to answer with a tying goal off the foot of sophomore Alyssa Fordyce.  It was Fordyce's first goal and took the match into extra periods.  Schreiner had more scoring chances and controlled the match.

Neither team could score in the first extra period and it was beginning to look like the match would end in a 1-1 tie but the Lady Rams managed to get the game winner in the waning seconds.

Schreiner has little time to recoup as the Mountaineers begin ASC play tomorrow in Kerrville against perennial ASC power Texas Lutheran.  Schreiner hopefully will begin getting some of its injured players back next week but continues to play solid defense and has been very competitive with scholarship programs so far in the young season.
