Soccer Wins Fourth in a Row with 1-0 Decision at Bowling Green
October 19, 2025 | Soccer
BOWLING GREEN, Ohio – The Ball State soccer team won its fourth match in a row with a 1-0 decision at Bowling Green on Sunday afternoon at Cochrane Stadium.
The Cardinals (9-5-2, 6-3-1 Mid-American Conference) handed the Falcons (8-2-6, 3-1-5 MAC) their first MAC loss of the year and only second overall this season.
Addie Chester provided the day's scoring with an unassisted goal in the 34th minute. The senior tallied her 10th goal of the year with the game-winner, which was her fourth in 2025.
Chester became the second Cardinal in program history to record double digit goals in multiple seasons after also scoring 10 in 2024 (Avery Fenchel with 11 in 2022 and 2023).
Ball State goalkeeper Kate Pallante made six saves among the 16 shots the hosts took to earn the solo shutout.
Chester took 3 of 4 Ball State shots on the afternoon, placing two on goal. Fellow senior Delaney Caldwell had the other look for the Cardinals, who generated more corner kicks than Bowling Green (3-1).
Joining Pallante in playing the full 90 minutes for the visitors were Delaney Ahearn, Fiona Kilian, Grier Isaacson, Jordyn Klaasen, Tori Monaco and Izzy Ross.
Bowling Green was whistled for more offsides violations (3-2), while Ball State had more fouls (12-9).
The Cardinals get a midweek bye before returning to competition on Sunday, Oct. 26 for the home season finale against Miami (OH).
