Soccer Wins in Overtime, Enters Tournament as No. 2 Seed
October 25, 2018 | Soccer
MUNCIE, Ind. – Freshman Tatiana Mason scored another game-winning goal in overtime, and the Ball State University soccer team defeated Miami, 3-2, on the final day of the regular season on Thursday at Briner Sports Complex.
With the win, the Cardinals finish the season with a record of 12-3-2 overall and 8-2-1 in conference play. Ball State has secured the second seed in the Mid-American Conference Tournament and will host Buffalo on Sunday (Oct. 28) at 1:00 p.m. ET. BSU enters the tournament on a seven-game winning streak.
The Cardinals started quickly as Julia Elvbo scored in the seventh minute off a corner kick from teammate Paula Guerrero. Elvbo found the pass and launched it into the upper left corner of the net to give Ball State the early lead. In the 29th minute, Sam Kambol extended BSU's lead to 2-0 when she took a pass from Amanda Shaw at the top of the box and beat the keeper.
Miami would pull within one before the half was over, and the Cardinals took a 2-1 advantage into the break.
Both teams had chances out of the locker room, but it was Miami that capitalized as it found the back of the net off a free kick in the 68th minute for the equalizer. Ball State pressed to get a game winner in regulation but was unable to do so.
Within seconds of overtime beginning, the match was over. The MAC's leader in game-winning goals struck again as Mason rocketed a shot into the bottom-right corner of the goal to give BSU the 3-2 victory just 41 seconds into the overtime period. Alessandra Fistrovich was credited with an assist on the goal.
The Cardinals doubled up the RedHawks in shots by a tally of 22-11. BSU put nine on goal while Miami had six. Ball State earned eight corner kicks to Miami's three.
Ball State now shifts its focus to the postseason which begins with the matchup against Buffalo. The Bulls and Cardinals met earlier this season in Muncie where BSU claimed a 1-0 victory on an own goal from the Bulls.
