Game Recap: Women's Soccer |

(25) Women's Soccer picks up 3-1 win over Avila to even season record at 1-1

Women's Soccer picked up their first win of the 2021 season at home Saturday night.

The (25) Ravens topped the Avila University Eagles 3-1, evening their record to 1-1 on the season.

Saturday was a re-match of teams who met during the extended spring season. That match saw the two teams battle to a scoreless, double-overtime draw.

Annabelle Hoog made sure Saturday's contest wouldn't be scoreless, while also scoring the first goal of the Ravens 2021 season. Hoog beat Avila's Madison Baker on an assist by Kourtney Koc in the 7th minute, giving the home squad an early 1-0 lead.

While the Ravens weren't able to add to their lead before half, taking the 1-0 advantage into the break, they did dominate possession in the first half. They totaled 11 shots, 6 on goal, in the first 45 minutes. The Ravens also earned four corner kicks in the first half. 

Avila, on the other hand, managed just 2 shots in the first half, with 1 shot on goal that Ravens keeper Olivia Berry was able to save.

The Ravens created several chances early in the second half and finally broke through for their second goal of the contest with just under 36 minutes to play. Koc picked up her second assist of the game, sliding a pass to Riley Degner who knocked it in for the goal, and a 2-0 Ravens lead.

Avila cut the Ravens lead in half with 30 minutes to play. Morgan Pettlon placed her shot in the perfect location, beating Berry high to make the score 2-1 in the Ravens favor.

The Ravens held off the Eagles attack for the remainder of the half, then added an insurance goal with 5 minutes to play. Rachel Beffa sent a curving free kick toward the middle of the goal and Koc headed it in to add to her sparkling performance. The Ravens made the 3-1 lead stick for the final 5 minutes.

The Ravens finished the match with 21 total shots and 13 on goal. Berry made 4 saves in goal. The Eagles had 7 shots, 5 on goal, with 10 saves by Baker.

The Ravens continue non-conference play against Missouri Baptist at 6 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 1 at home on Legacy Field.
