 Well, for the second year in a row, the BSU women's soccer team hosting the quarterfinals of the NSIC tourney after going unbeaten in the regular season, the Beavers not ready to start fresh and reach their goal. A being crowned conference tournament champs. First up Winona State this afternoon at the Chet they beat the Warriors 4-1 back in September forecast was cold, but the Beavers offense hot Rachel Norton behind the defense and finishes one new BSU then later in the half. Raquel Thielen to Danny Nelson in space beats the keeper far post to extend the lead the two then more in the second half feeling again to Norton. How do you leave her this wide open? Finishes for her second in the game, three nil Beavers, but hold on a sec. Warriors show some life free kick. Cameron Cates gets a touch and delivers the strike that'll cut it to two. And after a BSU foul inside the box with Nona State penalty kick, Abby Bajanski takes advantage. Just like that, a one goal game, but Catherine Arneson. She made some big stops down the stretch, including this one here, just keeping it from crossing the end line. Beavers ground out the win 3-2 in their finale at the Chet. Here they were after the game on the victory. They came out with energy and then, you know, when, you know, unfortunately we gave up some set pieces, which we talked about not doing. And we gave them a little life and then, you know, probably the kids at the area will kind of bunker down though and then see out the win. I think our defense really stepped up after those two goals. We're a very good defensive team. So I think that's what kept us in the game. I think our legs were kind of getting tired towards the end, but it doesn't matter because we still stepped it up. I have time we talked about that when Nona definitely would come out and really just go after it. And there's just kind of weird, about 10 minutes. But then yeah, we pretty much were just like, okay, well maybe we have to hunker down here and just see it out. Top seed of Mankato, grind it out a win and shoot out. That means the tournament shifts Mankato Friday. The Beavers will take on Augustana at 11 a.m. If you've enjoyed this segment of Lakeland News, please consider making a tax deductible contribution to Lakeland Public Television.
