Box Score OLYMPIA - Both teams had plenty of attempts at goal but in the end The Evergreen State College and Warner Pacific ended up in a 0-0 double overtime draw Saturday afternoon in a Cascade Collegiate Conference women's soccer match played at Geoduck Pitch.
The host Geoducks (2-2-1 overall, 0-1-1 CCC) took a total of 20 shots and put five of them on target, while Warner Pacific (2-3-2, 0-1-1) ended up with 16 total shots, also with five on frame. Evergreen keeper
Kayla Baskett finished with five saves in collecting her first shutout of the season, and she was particularly effective coming off her line and snuffing out several Warner Pacific attacks via long balls over the back line.
Like Baskett, Knights goalie Kathy Lara had five saves. Corner kicks were nearly equal, the visitors owning a slight 5-4 advantage.
Evergreen had the run of play in the opening 45 minutes, finishing the half with seven shot to just two for the visitors. The second half featured lots of open play and plenty of counterattacking as Warner Pacific took 11 attempts compared to 10 for Evergreen. The Knights attempted four shots in the two overtimes compared to two for the Geoducks.
One of Evergreen's best chances came about three minutes into the first extra session when
Stephanie Yoder took the ball down the right flank and hit a cross for
Haleigh Ryneski, who missed just right of the post.Â
The Geoducks take to the road for their next three conference matches. They play at Northwest University next Saturday, and then face the long road trip to Oregon the following weekend for games at Southern Oregon and Oregon Tech.
