MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — It took 78 minutes but No. 3 West Virginia broke through on a goal by Hannah Abraham and pulled out a 2-0 win against No. 23 Oklahoma in front of 1,973 fans at Dick Dlesk Soccer Stadium.

Their fourth victory over a ranked opponent this season extended the Mountaineers’ home conference unbeaten streak to 32 matches. West Virginia (10-1-1, 2-0 Big 12) has not dropped a league home match since 2009, dating back to its Big East days.

“I was really proud of our grit and our grind,” WVU coach Nikki Izzo-Brown said.
