LITTLE ROCK- Both teams fought hard in a tightly contested matchup in San Marcos, Texas but both Little Rock and Texas State would walk away with a well-earned point in the 1-1 draw.
The Bobcats got on the board early in the first half when a Texas State's Jordan Kondikoff sent Kaylee Davis through on goal and delivered a nice finish to give her team a 1-0 advantage. With that goal, Davis is now the leading scorer in the Sun Belt with eight total goals.
The Trojans regrouped at halftime and dominated the possession for the next 45 minutes. The Little Rock offensive came to life and created a multitude of scoring opportunities.
The breakthrough came in the 62
nd minute when a beautiful run of play led to a Bobcat foul in the penalty area and the Trojans were awarded a penalty. Defender
Liesa Seifert stepped up to the spot and calmly slotted the ball into the back of the next to level the score at 1-1 and grab her second goal of the season.
While the Trojans would continue their offensive dominance for the remainder of the half, they were unable to find a winning goal in regulation.
Texas State were able to pick up the pace and get back into the game during the two overtime periods, but Little Rock still seemed to have the upper hand in terms of shots and shots on goal.
After two overtime periods, the score would remain level at 1-1 and both teams would receive a point in the Sun Belt standings.
The Trojans will travel to Monroe, La. on Sunday for another conference matchup to wrap up the weekend on Sept. 30 at 1 p.m.
