The Tulsa women's soccer team recorded a 2-1 win over crosstown rival Oral Roberts on Sunday night at the Case Soccer Complex on the ORU campus. The Golden Hurricane moved to 4-2-1 on the season, while the Golden Eagles fell to 3-4-1 overall.

"We played pretty well," Head Coach Jim Rhein said. "ORU is an extremely difficult team to play against. They play so hard, their system gave us a little bit of trouble from the start, but we were able to make some adjustments at halftime to take out some of their counterattacks against us. It was good to get this win tonight."

Isold Runarsdottir put the Golden Hurricane on the board at the 10:53 mark as she drilled in a shot off a forward pass from Madison Williams. This was Runarsdottir fourth goal on the season and sixth in her career.

Mia Darden made it 2-0 as she dribbled around defenders and ORU goalkeeper Louisa Ramsauer and punched one in from eight yards out into an open net at the 67:59 mark.

Just 19 seconds later ORU got one back as Mia Kitterman scored off a cross from Samantha See, but the Golden Eagles couldn't get the equalizer for the final 2-1 score.

Jadyn Chee and Darden both had a team-best six shots, while Georgia Vernardakis added three attempts, and Liliana Fernandez, Kayla Fernandez, Runarsdottir and Megan Nielsen all added two shots. Raegan Beeding logged all 90 minutes in goal and picked up three saves.

Tulsa had a 28-5 lead in shots, including a 12-4 advantage in shots on goal, and a 6-3 edge in corner kicks.

Tulsa will return to action on Thursday, September 16 at Cincinnati beginning at 6:00 pm in Cincinnati, Ohio.
