Eagles Battle to 1-1 Stalemate with SIUE
October 29, 2012
MOREHEAD, Ky. -- Following an early SIU Edwardsville goal, Morehead State's Macy Cobb netted the equalizer in the 28th minute Sunday, and the teams settled for the 1-1 double overtime tie at Jayne Stadium.
MSU moved to 1-11-4 overall and 1-4-3 in the Ohio Valley Conference, while SIUE's record now sits at 7-6-3 overall and 4-3-2 in the league.
Cobb led the Eagles with two shots on goal, while senior Sam Toepfer and junior Alex Pacitto also had shots. Freshman Elizabeth Floyd tallied seven saves for MSU.
SIUE got the scoring started in the 15th minute when freshman forward Katye Skrivan received the ball wide on the right side of the field, turned the MSU defender, and lofted a ball over the outstretched arms of Floyd. The goal was Skrivan’s second of the season.
The equalizer came for the Eagles off a cross from sophomore Paige Weber. Weber hit a ball from the left side of the field and found a sprinting Cobb, who connected on the volley for her third goal of the season.
The second half was marked by physical play and a 4-3 edge in shots by the Eagles. However, neither team could net a match-winner and the game ventured into overtime.
The Cougars outshot MSU, 7-0, in the two overtime frames but could not find the back of the net.
SIUE owned the 18-6 shot advantage on the day, and both teams finished with five corner kicks.
MSU is back in action on Friday when it hosts Austin Peay at Jayne Stadium. Kick-off is slated for 7 p.m. ET. Follow live stats at MSUEagles.com.
