Overtime Thriller Sends No. 20 Women's Soccer Past Cal in NCAA Tournament's Opening Round

SANTA CLARA, Calif. – No. 20 Santa Clara women's soccer moved on to the second round of the NCAA Tournament with an exciting 1-0 overtime win over Cal Saturday afternoon at Stevens Stadium.

The Broncos (14-5-2) and Bears (13-5-3) were even in the first half but Santa Clara took over in the second, outshooting Cal 12-1 and 7-0 in shots on frame but were denied every time until Julie Doyle blasted a shot into the back of the net in the 91st minute.

The goal was setup by a nice play from Audrey Hegardt who was able to poke a ball in traffic right to Doyle.
