Fort Hays State Women’s Soccer picked up a big win on Sunday afternoon (Oct. 27) in their final home match of the regular season, knocking off No. 15 ranked Washburn 2-1. FHSU improved to 7-4-4 overall and 4-3-2 in MIAA, while Washburn moved to 10-3-2 overall and took its first conference loss of the season, now 7-1-1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fort Hays State opened the scoring in the 20th<\/sup> minute when a failed clearance by an Ichabod defender went right to Taylor Hill<\/a><\/dfn>, who then had a 1-on-1 situation with the goalkeeper. Hill won the matchup with her fifth goal of the season to put the Tigers on top. FHSU held its 1-0 advantage at halftime after both teams took four shots in the first half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ichabods generated several offensive opportunities in the second half, despite playing into a breeze. In the 65th<\/sup> minute Washburn broke through with the equalizer as Khloe Schuckman barely got her foot on the ball just in front of Tiger keeper Mackenzie Caldwell<\/a><\/dfn> to push the ball past for a goal. Belle Kennedy assisted with a perfectly placed pass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even though the offensive opportunities were scarce for the Tigers in the second half, Allison Worley<\/a><\/dfn> made good on one of the team’s two shots of the second half. Britney Arneson<\/a><\/dfn> found her with a pass just outside the top of the box and led Worley to a spot where she put a brilliant strike on the ball in the 78th<\/sup> minute for the game-winning goal. It was Worley’s fourth goal of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Washburn finished with a 13-6 shot advantage in the match by taking nine second-half shots. Caldwell notched four saves in the match, while Ichabod keeper Alli Harrington picked up two saves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though the Tigers have played to several draws with ranked teams in recent years, it was their first win over a nationally ranked team since the 2019 season when they knocked off a No. 14 ranked Central Oklahoma team in Edmond, also by a score of 2-1. It was the first win over a ranked team in Hays since the 2015 season when the Tigers knocked off a No. 1 ranked Central Missouri team 2-1 as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Tigers go on the road for their final three matches of the regular season, starting with a trip to Oklahoma next week. The Tigers will play at Northeastern State on Friday (Nov. 1) at 7 p.m. before heading to Rogers State on Sunday (Nov. 3) at 2 p.m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
