Mavs Suffer First Conference Loss

Box Score

OMAHA, Neb. – The Omaha women's soccer team dropped its first conference match of the season 2-1 in double overtime to Oral Roberts on Sunday afternoon at Caniglia Field.

Omaha drops to 5-10-2 overall and 3-1-2 in Summit League play.  Oral Roberts improves to 3-8-3 overall and 2-3 in league play.

After a scoreless first half, Omaha got on the scoreboard first in the 57th minute.  Junior Chelsi Rohloff dribbled through a pair of Oral Robert defenders before blasting a shot past the keeper.  The goal was the tenth of the season for Rohloff.

The Mavericks kept the lead until the 81st minute, when Oral Roberts was awarded a penalty kick.  ORU's Ashley Martin scored the PK to level the score at 1-1.  Omaha's Chelsi Rohloff had a chance in the fleeting moments of regulation, but her shot was saved by ORU.

Each team had one shot in the first overtime.  The Golden Eagles' Lexi Jones stole a pass from a Maverick defender.  She played a ball in to Maria Stordahl who found separation from her defender.  Stordahl placed a shot just out of the reach of UNO goalkeeper Haley Shelton for the game winner.

Oral Roberts held a 20-12 shot advantage for the game.  Courtney Neville led UNO with four shots. 

UNO goalkeeper Haley Shelton made 11 saves in the loss.
