It was only last week when University of New Mexico sophomore forward Jill Olguin found the back of the net in overtime to see off UTEP. But against the University of Washington, it was the Lobos that found themselves on the receiving end of the golden goal overtime rule.
The Huskies (4-2) put substantial pressure on the Lobos (3-3) throughout the contest, registering 19 shots with six of them on target.
UNM sophomore goalkeeper Emily Johnson made a season-high five saves, keeping the Lobos in the game until the early stages of overtime. Johnson made several outstanding saves, including one off of a dangerous free kick in the 12th minute that, if not for Johnson, would have snuck its way into the corner of the goal.
