Last meeting of the Pioneers and Lady Bison
DENTON, Texas (Sept. 16, 2016) – A golden goal in overtime by Oklahoma Baptist University's Abigail Hicks sunk No. 15 Texas Woman's University 1-0 to hand the Pioneers their first defeat on the season and ended a four-game win streak Friday night at TWU Soccer Field.
A free kick by OBU (2-1) in the 97th minute began a hectic play in the box as Samantha Jimenez was able to punch out a Lady Bison attempt before the ball ricocheted off of members from both teams and found its way to the feet of Hicks who tapped it in for the win.
