It was a back and forth game. Very physical game. The KU coach at halftime was upset. He told the announcers that he told his team playing tough was NOT fouling. They had 12 at the half.
ISU scored with about 5 minutes left. It was a chip shot from about 20 yards out that bounced off and over the KU goalies hands and in. She was playing a bit off the line and that was her undoing.
It was ISU's only shot on goal, but that's all they needed. They took KU out of their "play fast" game plan by not pressing and forcing them to take the ball through the midfield. There were some close chances in the last 2 minutes for KU, but ISU defenders were up to the take.
The Cyclones will be back at home on Sunday at 1 PM for the next match up in the Cyhawk series. Admission is free!
