PORTLAND – The Southern Oregon University women’s soccer team dominated possession in regulation and finally broke through in overtime with a 1-0 win over Trinity Lutheran in a neutral-site nonleague game Friday at Concordia University.
The Raiders’ regulation advantage of 28 shots to five, including 13-2 on goal, was moot until sophomore Kendra Madaras-Kelly converted the match-winner with an unassisted rocket from 20 yards out just 1 minute, 32 seconds into the extra period.
The shot total was the second highest of the season for the Raiders, who snapped a two-game skid and improved to 3-2-1 overall. Trinity Lutheran, an Everett, Wash. school, fell to 2-9-1.
The score was Madaras-Kelly’s second of the season. She got off four shots in the contest, second only to Sydney Paulsen’s eight and four on goal.
Freshman goalkeeper Kylie Moltzen was credited with her third shutout of the season.
The Raiders will play one more at Concordia on Sunday against Carroll College (Mont.).
