Women's soccer defeated in overtime by Millikin

ROCK ISLAND -- The Augustana Vikings women's soccer team saw their season come to an end on Saturday, falling to the visiting Millikin Big Blue in overtime by a score or 1-0. 

Millikin held a 5-1 advantage in shots after 45 minutes of action, but neither team could find the back of the net as it remained scoreless at the break. Millikin upped the pressure in the second half, possessing the ball on the Augie side of the field for a good chunk of the frame, but the Vikings' defense continued to stand tall, allowing just one of the visitor's four attempts on target. Augustana notched two shots in the second, but neither were on the mark as the two teams played to 90 minutes without a point.

Six minutes into the first overtime session, Augie saw its first shot on goal as a strike from Liesl Whitener was stopped by the Millikin keeper. Janey Castoe saved the lone attempt from the Big Blue to keep the game tied after 100 minutes of play.

In the second half of overtime, the Big Blue broke the deadlock with a score five minutes in. Augie was unable to find the equalizer and Millikin held on to eliminate the Vikings from the postseason.

Whitener led Augie with three shots, while Castoe secured five saves.

Augustana ends its season with a 10-5-4 overall record.
