Mav Offense Comes Alive in 2nd Half for Win
Sep 30, 2005 | Women's Soccer
VERMILLION, S.D. - The Mavericks scored three times in the second half as they overcame a one-goal deficit to defeat South Dakota 3-1 Friday evening. No. 7 Nebraska-Omaha moved to 7-1-0 as it won its seventh straight game and improved to 2-0-0 in the North Central Conference.
The Mavs took just three first-half shots and went into the break down 1-0 after USD converted a penalty kick in the 12th minute. Less than five minutes into the second half UNO junior Rachel Waterhouse scored her second goal of the year, unassisted, to tie the game. The Mavs then converted a penalty kick of their own when Brandie Beale knocked in her team-leading seventh of the year in the 71st minute. The goal was her third game-winner of the year. Freshman Amanda Iwansky then gave UNO some insurance when she scored on a pass from freshman Tara Wegehaupt eight minutes later. The goal was Iwansky's third of the year and Wegehaupt's assist represented her first collegiate point.
Maverick senior goalkeeper Amy Price let the penalty kick slip in but then stopped USD's only other shot on goal to improve to 6-1-0 on the year. The Mavs out shot the Coyotes 12-6 and held an 11-2 advantage on corner kicks as they improved to 7-0-0 all-time against USD.
Nebraska-Omaha will pass the halfway point of its regular season when it plays at North Dakota Sunday at 1 p.m. in an NCC showdown.
