Evansville, IN. – Freshman Hillary Griffin netted her second goal of the season, but the Redbirds fell on the road 3-1 Thursday night at Evansville.
The Redbirds trailed 2-0 at the halftime break, then Griffin sparked a strong offensive push by Illinois State. The Redbirds controlled tempo early in the second half, which led to Griffin's tally in the 49th minute.
Junior Haley Glover set up the opportunity as she won possession in the middle third and took the ball forward. Glover fed Griffin, who dribbled into the box and beat the goalie at the near post from about 10 yards out.
