Three First Half Goals Propel Stars Past Jarvis Christian University for 3-1 Victory

Box Score

HAWKINS, Texas – The Oklahoma City women's soccer team earned their first win of the season in their opener with a 3-1 final score against Jarvis Christian University. The Stars used three first-half goals and stifling defense to secure the victory against the Bulldogs.  

Goals 

'11 – Reese Roberts (1); Assisted By: Amelia Horsford  

'34 – Hallie Crom (1); Assisted By: Inka Silz 

'35 – Jadyn Basler (1)  

How it Happened 

The Stars' first goal of the 2024-25 campaign only took 11 minutes to score and less than 25 minutes after the initial goal was scored, OCU added two more first half goals to take a 3-0 lead into the halftime break. The Lady Stars logged the first goal of the season on an assisted scoring strike from sophomore Amelia Horsford to another sophomore Reese Roberts. Junior Mid-Fielder, Inka Silz of Kopernikus, Germany assisted on the Stars' second goal which was scored by Forward Hallie Crom in the 34th minute. Almost immediately after Crom's goal, Jadyn Basler of Yukon netted an unassisted goal to send OCU to halftime with a major advantage on the scoreboard and in the momentum department. The Stars held Jarvis to 74 minutes and 33 seconds of scoreless soccer before they allowed an unassisted goal to Mitzy Guereca at the 74:34 mark in the match. The three first half goals proved to be enough for the Stars to win the contest against the Bulldogs.  

Notes on the Game  

  • Oklahoma City only took one more total shot than Jarvis and scored on three of their five first-half shots.   

  • The Stars doubled the Bulldogs in corner kicks four to two and did not allow a single corner kick in the first half. 

  • After being able to only participate in three games last season due to health reasons, Saizlee Carlton was a welcome sight back in her 2024 debut as she tied Abby Russell for the most shots in today's match (2).      

Up Next
