Brune’s Strike, Mercer’s Heroics Push Troy to Victory at Texas State

SAN MARCOS, Texas -- The heart and spirit of the Troy University soccer program was on full display Friday evening, as the red-hot Trojans defeated the Texas State Bobcats 1-0 in the first overtime period at the Bobcat Soccer Complex.

The senior combination was in full-effect once again Friday, as Kiersten Edlund delivered a perfect corner kick service that found classmate Maddie Brune on the back post, who calmly headed a shot past Bobcat goalkeeper Heather Martin with just one-minute remaining in the first overtime period.

On the goal, Edlund recorded her 12th assist of the season, and recorded her 18th career helper which is a new Troy record.
