The women's soccer team found themselves once again playing in overtime. This time it was with a score line of 1-1. This marks the third straight SCAC game that has gone the full 110 minutes of soccer.
Rhodes found themselves down a goal very early in the contest, when Alexandra Ehr scored just 15 seconds into the game. She was assisted by Bridget Coleman. The Lynx were able to regroup and fight back to keep the score line 1-0 at half.
The Lynx would answer in the 66th minute when sophomore Laura Flink (Dallas, TX/J.J. Pearce) finished an assist from freshmen Mae Casey (New Orleans, LA/Academy of the Sacred Heart). The Lynx would press for the game winner, but their best opportunities were cleared off the line twice by the DePauw defense. Toward the end of regulation, the Lynx would clear a DePauw shot off the line as well.
Both teams were unable to create a lot of quality scoring chances in the overtime periods.
Senior Becca Clarin (Clarendon Hills, IL/Hinsdale Central) made 4 saves for the Lynx. Lauren Palfrey and Caroline Kerr combined for 3 saves for DePauw.
The Tigers would out shoot the Lynx 14-7, but the Lynx held the advantage in corner kicks 7-2.
The Women's Soccer team is back in action following fall break, when they host Oglethorpe University on Friday Oct. 23rd. The game will be held at the Mike Rose Soccer Complex in conjunction with the Wolfe River Soccer Classic. Game time is scheduled for 5pm.
