Campbell Rebounds at Home in 2-1 OT Win Against Winthrop
BUIES CREEK,
N.C. - Turnabout was fair play for the Campbell women, as they used
an own goal 3:44 into the first overtime period to defeat Winthrop
2-1, after falling to UNC Wilmington on a late own goal during a
midweek match. The win takes the Camels to 2-3-0 while the Lady
Eagles fall to 2-3-0.
The win ends a three game skid for the Camels and also marks
the first time in three matches that the team has out shot an
opponent, as the Camels hit 16 shots to Winthrop's five.
The Eagles took the lead in the match at the 52:55 mark, when
freshman Chelsea White scored her third goal of the season. The
Swanton, Ohio native headed home a cross from senior defender
Michael Sonefeld past goalkeeper Ashley Pate who had come on to
replace and injured Samar Azem earlier in the match.
Allie Frakes had the answer for the Camels less than a minute
later, as the Richardson, Texas native headed home her first career
goal for the Camels. Frakes, a freshman, came forward from her
central marking back position to head home a cornerkick from junior
Christina Candeloro 53:53 into the match.
The two teams played close for the rest of regulation. Winthrop
goalkeeper Dimitra Poulos had an important foot save in the
65th minute to deny Campbell's Danielle Mandela from
inside the penalty area.
The Eagles nearly took the game in the 90th when
freshman midfielder Erin Foote took a quick free kick from just
over 25 yards out that caught the Camels off-guard and rattled off
the crossbar.
In overtime it was a third set piece goal in the match as
Candeloro's corner kick drifted in towards the Lady Eagle goal and
was put into the net by a Winthrop defender.
The Camels will play next at East Carolina on Friday at 4:00
p.m. The Lady Eagles return home to take on Samford Monday in a
1:00 p.m. kickoff.
