Box Score

TULSA, Okla. – South Dakota State (12-1-1, 3-0-1 SUMMIT) and Oral Roberts (4-7-2, 1-2-1 SUMMIT) were unable to separate themselves Sunday afternoon at Case Soccer Complex as the two sides battled to a 1-1 draw.

The Jackrabbits outshot the Golden Eagles, 25-12, and sent 10 shots on goal compared to ORU's one but could not find a winning goal.

Maya Hansen found the back of the net for the fourth consecutive match and increased her season goal total to 11, a Summit League best. Goalkeeper Jocelyn Tanner made four saves and Rachel Preston put forward a 110-minute effort for the Jacks defense.

ORU opened the scoring in the 10^th minute after an uncharacteristic mistake by the Jackrabbit defense gave the Golden Eagles a good look at goal. ORU's Pamela Caballeros then delivered the contest's first goal.

SDSU had a couple of great chances to draw level with about 20 minutes remaining in the first half with five shots in a span of three minutes, but two saves by the ORU keeper kept the Jacks off the board.

The Jacks trailed at halftime for the first time all season despite outshooting Oral Roberts 12-3 in the half.

It was the Jacks' turn to capitalize on a miscue when Hansen swiped the ball from a Golden Eagle defender, beat the keeper with a nifty move and placed the ball into the net to bring SDSU back level in the 54^th minute.

SDSU had a strong final push in regulation but couldn't muster a go-ahead goal.

Both sides had their chances in overtime but couldn't net the game-winner. Hansen had a good look at goal in the 92^nd minute but a kick save by the Golden Eagle keeper kept the two sides level. Fortune seemed to be on the side of the Jackrabbits as an ORU shot went off the woodwork for the third time of the day in the 108^th minute.
