Lions Review
The game started with OCU coming out strong, securing two crucial goals in the 22nd and 58th minutes, giving them a 2-0 advantage on the scoreboard. However, the Lady Lions quickly adjusted their strategy and made some impressive plays to counter OCU's fast start.
Lady Lion freshman Stephanie Hernandez was a key contributor, scoring a contested goal, beautifully assisted by Valeria Olivas Maldonado. This goal breathed new life into the game and demonstrated the Lady Lions' resilience.
Despite a late push and valiant efforts, the Lady Lions fell just short of turning the tide in their favor. Zoe Boldt finished the game with nine saves.
