Gorloks Women’s Soccer Secure 2-2 Draw At Millikin

DECATUR, Ill. - The Webster women's soccer team continued non-conference play with a mid-week road decision at Millikin University Wednesday night. The Gorloks and Big Blue battled back-and-forth which resulted in a 2-2 tie at Lindsay Field. 

In the early going, Webster and Millikin each exchanged shots on as both goalkeepers in Courtney Haneline and Myka Smith each collected one save apiece. In the 25th minute, Gorloks senior defender Isabella Dickneite found the back of the net for the early 1-0 advantage which was assisted by Mackenzie Sundhausen.

For the next 15 minutes of play, the Gorloks earned two corner kicks and added one shot by Payton Montana that went high. In the 40th minute, Millikin tied the match at one apiece on a goal by Payton Dominguez which resulted in 1-1 tie at the break.

In the 49th minute, the Big Blue were awarded a penalty kick on a Gorlok foul in the box which resulted in a goal by Melis Barutcu that took the 2-1 lead for Millikin. 

After the goal by Barutcu, the Gorloks fired four shots on goal led by Grace Rodgers with two while Montana and Sundhausen each added one. In the 72nd minute, Montana got her revenge and tied the match at two apiece with a goal which was her second of the season.  In the 85th minute, reigning SLIAC Offensive Player of the Week Malaya Blakely had a great opportunity to give the Gorloks the lead but her shot missed the right goal post by just inches which resulted in a draw.

For the match, the Gorloks outshot the Big Blue by the margin of 13-5 as Montana led with four while Rodgers and Sundhausen added three each. 

The Gorloks will open a three-game homestand this Saturday, September 14 hosting Aurora University at 1:00 PM in Fenton, Missouri.
