Last Thursday we traveled to Oklahoma to play Tulsa and Oklahoma State(number 18 in the nation). We played Tulsa on Friday in a very tight match. The defense kept us in the game for the most part until Katie Wilson scored late in the second half. We kept it 1-1 for regulation time and went into golden goal over time. Eventually losing with 2 minutes left in the first overtime off a cross.
Oklahoma State was a tougher match up. They are fundamentally good and calm with the ball at their feet. We started off against the wind, so we struggled. Down 3-0 at half we needed something to help us get going. We didn't get that something till 80 minutes in the match when Sophie Hargreaves took a long shot that went over the keepers head. Hargreaves' goal was followed by a goal off the foot of Kalli McCoy.
Overall we played well, but it was disappointing that we did not come back to Murray with a win.
