First Half  

Coming off of a shutout the Stars were in desperate need of finding the back of the net in Monday's game. OCU had plenty of chances to score as the Stars shot 11 times with seven coming on goal, yet they still were held scoreless. The OCU defense locked down the back of the pitch and let nothing go by as Bethany did not get off a single shot in the first forty-five. Although the Stars remained aggressive with shots coming on-goal from Ashley Russell and Sydney Hawkins in the final minutes of play in the first half, Bethany goalkeeper Mackenzie Nutter allowed nothing to get through and the teams headed into the locker room scoreless at the half.

Second Half  

The Stars continued to be aggressive in the beginning of the second period and it only took 15 minutes for OCU to get one past Nutter and into the net. McLain Moss, a senior out of Tulsa, Okla. Got one to go on the assist from Abby Russell in the 61st minute of play to give the Stars a 1-0 lead. Just over a minute later Oklahoma City struck again as Moss stayed in on the action sending a nice pass to freshman Reese Roberts for the second goal of the evening. In the final 10 minutes with the contest feeling out of reach, OCU refused to stop as Ruby Nichols added on the lead with a goal in the 81st minute to close out the match and send the Stars onto their first win of the season by a score of 3-0.  

Games Notes  

  • The Oklahoma City offense was in complete control on Monday night as the Stars took 19 shots with 13 coming on goal while the OCU defense held Bethany to only one shot in the full 90 minutes.  
  • Senior McLain Moss earned tonight's Star of the Show award as Moss scored her first goal of the season and the 12th of her four-year career. Moss took three shots with all three on-goal and tallied one assist in the contest as well. 
  • After taking a game-high four shots on Saturday against Missouri Baptist Reese Roberts saw the first goal of her career go into the net in the 61st minute of play. Roberts, a freshman Exercise Science major from Oklahoma City carried over the aggressive offense from Saturday shooting four times, all coming on goal. 
  • Sophomore Ruby Nichols netted the first goal of her career as Nichols put one through in the 81st minute of play.    
  • Monday's match was the third all-time meeting between the two teams and the Stars remain a perfect 3-0 against the Swedes dating back to 2021. In the three times these two have met Oklahoma City has not given up a goal to Bethany, pitching a shutout in each of the three contests played.
