Junior forward Sara Osinski scored a goal in the 72nd minute as the University of Evansville women’s soccer team slipped past Miami (Ohio), 1-0, on Friday evening at Arad McCutchan Stadium.
Through the first 45 minutes of action, Evansville out-shot the Redhawks, 5-3, with three coming on frame. In goal, freshman goalkeeper Michaela Till made a pair of saves to preserve the scoreless tie at the half.
The second half continued the trend as both teams struggled to put shots on-goal. The Aces found their breakthrough in the 72nd minute as Osinski settled the ball at the top right corner of the box. The Noblesville, Indiana native fired a shot from 20-yards out that sailed over the keeper’s head and found the back of the net.
In the final 18 minutes, the Aces held firm as Miami took three shots, but the Redhawks were unable to push the match into overtime.
