The Butler women’s soccer team had to win or hope Providence College lost on Oct. 26 to get a bye in the Big East Tournament. After being down 1-0 early, the Bulldogs fought back to earn a 2-1 overtime victory over Villanova University.
Villanova’s Emily Kuefler scored off of a free kick in the 24th minute. The goal was the only shot the Wildcats got on goal in the first half, yet it was enough to give them a 1-0 halftime lead.
