Missouri State women's soccer came out with ferocity against a well-matched opponent in Oral Roberts, winning 2-0 in their first of three home games this week.
In a physical match that resulted in 16 overall fouls and three yellow cards, MSU bested ORU for its fourth win of the season.
“I was pleased,” head coach Rob Brewer said. “We started the game pretty quickly after the first couple of minutes. We had a terrible miscue that almost cost us, but we re-focused.”
With MSU president Clif Smart and 120 other fans in attendance, the Bears scored their first goal within the first 5 minutes.
