Women's Soccer - vs. MN-Morris
Late goal rescues Saints against UM-Morris
The Saints opened up a 2-0 lead in the first 26 minutes of the game, only to see their lead evaporate over the next 16 minutes. The second half went scoreless until less than seven minutes remained when Robin Johnson scored the game-winner, her fifth goal of the season.
Shannon Kresky opened the scoring in the 22nd minute with her third goal of the year, off assists from Johnson and Kristy Shelerud. Roughly four minutes later Jen Seip scored her second of the year, off an assist from Kristen Stangel, to stake the Saints to their two goal lead. But then Sara Wolf from Morris singlehandedly evened the score with two unassisted goals to send the teams into the break knotted at 2-2.
In an even second half that saw the Saints register eight shots to Morris' 7 and no team gaining a corner kick opportunity, Johnson finally broke through and scored the unassisted game-winner at 83:40, and the Saints then hung on for the 3-2 win.
Kristin Lammi was in goal for the Saints and had 8 saves on the day.
