Box Score

South Dakota State women's soccer played to a 1-1 draw with South Dakota Sunday afternoon at Dana J. Dykhouse Stadium.

The Jackrabbits, now 6-0-4 on the season, fired nine shots in the 110-minute affair, placing four on goal. Kayla Wisniewski netted her second score of the weekend in the second half and Gabby Vivier-Hannay recorded an assist for SDSU.

Taylor Lock and Jocelyn Tanner both saw time between the pipes, as the Jackrabbit defense faced five Coyote shots on goal (and 12 total attacks).

USD broke through late in the first half, grabbing a 1-0 lead at 38:59 as Tiannah Moore skipped a shot from just outside the box through the Jackrabbit defense and into the right side of the net.

The Coyotes continued to pester the Jackrabbits throughout the second half, but in the 76^th SDSU found its equalizer off the foot of Wisniewski. The score was initially set up with Abigail Kastens drew a foul just outside the box, and Vivier-Hannay recorded the assist as her free kick from the far side of the field found Wisniewski open in the box for the right-footed score.

All tied at 1-1, the teams found themselves trading attacks the remainder of regulation, sending the game to extra time. Katherine Jones nearly gave State the golden-goal win in the 95^th with an effort that tipped over the crossbar at the last moment, but neither squad would break the stalemate the rest of the way.
