BG posts 2-1 Victory over CSU

This past Sunday the BGSU Women's Soccer team put on a nice showing to earn a 2-1 win over visiting Cleveland State University. The game was scoreless going into the second half, but Senior Katie Stephenson got the Falcons rolling with a header on goal that eluded the CSU keeper and put the Falcons up 1-0 (assists on the goal were provided by Morgan Burgner and Emily Rothwell). The lead was short lived and CSU fought back 3 minutes later to even the score up. BG kept their composure and continued to chip away at the CSU back line until finally Sarah Vonderbrink put in another Falcon goal from a cross from teammate Megan Amann who was put in behind the defense by Katie Stephenson. On the day, BGSU outshot the Vikings 15-8 and dominated much of the run of play and opportunities on goal. Katelyn Turner nearly scored twice and was supported by many other offensive attempts by the Falcons.

The team will next take on the Michigan State Spartans this Friday, September 17th. Game time is set for 5:00pm.

*The team will hold an autograph session with poster handout following the game on Friday. Please stick around following the final whistle to meet and greet this year's team!
