Beeson Gives Loggers Edge In Overtime

TACOMA, Wash. – The No. 13 Puget Sound women's soccer team won in dramatic fashion on Friday with a 2-1 overtime victory over UC Santa Cruz. With the pair of goals, the Loggers have scored exactly two goals in each of their three games this year.

The game-winner came just a few minutes into the first overtime period when Kylie Beeson found the back of the net for her first goal of the season. The ball was played up to Christine Isabella who dribbled through the defense and found Beeson all alone on the right side of the goalie's box. Beeson quickly fired the ball to score the game-winner.

An unfortunate own goal off a Santa Cruz free kick forced the overtime. The Loggers had controlled much of the game until that point.

"I am really proud of the way we fought through adversity, with the own goal and overtime," said head coach Randy Hanson. "We'll keep working to get better and come out ready to play again on Sunday."

The Loggers also encountered adversity in trying to get the ball in the net. Banana Slug goalkeeper Monica Chazen came up with four big saves throughout the game. All four saves came on breakaways and prime scoring opportunities for the Loggers.

Theresa Henle was the first to hang up a mark on the scoreboard when she controlled a rebound in front of the net and fired it past the sprawling goalkeeper for the go-ahead goal.

The Loggers are in action again on Sunday when they face No. 17 Claremont at noon on Peyton Field.
