Following a tough home shutout loss to Florida Gulf Coast this past Sunday, FAU women’s soccer (3-4-2, 1-0-0 C-USA) needed to build some momentum in their first conference match of the season Thursday night against North Texas (5-2-2, 0-1-0 C-USA).

Luckily for the Owls, they overcame an early deficit to secure a hard-fought 2-1 victory over the Mean Green in overtime, giving them a strong start in the conference.
