Women's Soccer battles Austin College to 0-0 Result on Friday
SHERMAN, Texas – The University of Dallas women's soccer team (4-10-2, 1-7-2 SCAC) battled Austin College (3-11-2, 1-8-2) on Friday afternoon to a scoreless draw. This is the second consecutive conference matchup that the Crusaders have resulted in a 0-0 final. Both teams remain deadlocked in sixth place of the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC) standings with five points.
The home team earned the first three shots after the start of the clock, before Chelsea Reeh (Boerne, Texas) had a shot blocked in the 13th minute. Dallas fired the next pair of shots with Ella Pedrozo (Austin, Texas) missing a header left and Cascade Mayer (Kapaa, Hawaii) shooting high. That final effort was at the 14:55 minute mark, and the next shot by a Crusader was just under five minutes later on a shot by Elisa Duran (Pomona, Calif.) that was turned away by Laura McGee.
Dallas posted a team-high six shots in the first half, but were playing on the defensive side of the ball throughout the contest. The 'Roos generated 12 shots in both 45-minute halves to outdo UD 24-10 by the final buzzer in regulation.
In the first overtime, the team's combined for three fouls before Reeh shot wide left in the 96th minute. A little over a minute later AC's Sarah Battles missed left and Duran countered with a shot on goal with around two minutes until the final break. Kate Vidmos (Bedford, Texas) would get the road squad's lone shot in the second overtime blocked less than a minute in, and the Crusaders smothered the final four Austin College game-winning efforts. This included two shots saved by UD's Olivia Severson (La Crosse, Wis.) at the 106:40 and 108:49 marks.
