The Tulsa women's soccer team dropped a 2-1 decision to Ole Miss on Sunday night at the Hurricane Soccer and Track Stadium. TU fell to 4-5-1 on the season, while the Rebels moved to 5-5 overall.

"I thought we played with a lot of heart and definitely battled," Head Coach Kyle Cussen said. "We had a great chance to tie it up with 10 seconds left on the clock and created chances in the second half that we've normally been putting away, so I was excited about the way we played and the heart we played with tonight."

Reagan Whitlow put the Golden Hurricane on the board with just 9:53 ticked off the clock as she punched in a pass from McKenzi McAdams from 10 yards out.

Gretchen Harknett evened the score in the 51^st minute as she scored from 12 yards out off a cross from Addie Forbus, and then Forbus put the Rebels up 2-1 in the 61^st minute for the final score.

Ole Miss had a 15-9 lead in shots, including a 10-4 advantage in shots on goal, while Tulsa had a 4-3 edge in corner kicks.

Valiree Morris had a team-best three shots, while Tana Dake added two attempts and four others had one shot. Courtney McKeon logged all 90 minutes between the posts and picked up eight saves.
