SHAWNEE, Okla. -
Jordan Pearce netted two goals for the University of Mary but Oklahoma Baptist scored three second half goals to take a 4-3 victory over the Marauders on Saturday, Oct. 29.
Â
Pearce scored Mary's first goal of the match in the 29th-minute from 20-yards out after receiving a pass from teammate
Jakob Olsson. Three minutes later
Marc Carreras found the net after passing two OKBU defenders and the Marauders took a 2-1 lead into halftime.
Â
However, the Bison recorded 14 shots in the second half and scored the game winning goal in the 80th-minute of the match off a Jared Hill goal. OKBU took a late 3-2 lead in the match and two minutes later that lead expanded off a Vicente Castillo score and the Bison led 4-2 late in the match.
Â
Pearce had a nice break away and one-on-one match against Bison goalkeeper Colin Spencer in the 84th-minute to score Mary's third goal of the match but the Marauders weren't able to score anything else in the remaining minutes.
Â
OKBU outshot the Marauders 20-14 and finished with 10 shots on goal compared to Mary's six shots.
Â
Carreras finished with five shots for the Blue & Orange and Andre Almqvist added four shots of his own. Olsson and
Aaron Brennan collected the two assists for the Marauders as the visiting team won the corner kicks battle 5-2.
Â
Spencer earned the victory between the posts for the Bison as
Ludvig Rhodin was given the loss for the Marauders.
Â
Rhodin finished with six saves and gave up four goals in the match as he fell to 6-8-0 on the year.
Â
The Marauders will lace up the boots next on Monday, Oct. 31 when they travel to Bethany, Okla., to take on Southern Nazarene at 12 p.m.
