Box Score

September 24 - Lois Immerman's header in double overtime lifted the Oberlin College women's soccer team to a 3-2 victory over Bluffton on Wednesday afternoon.

“It was good to get back on the winning track,” head coach Kristen Hayden said. “The match had a lot of momentum swings, but I was proud of the way we fought to come away with a win.”

The Yeowomen trailed 1-0 at the half, but Immerman notched her first of two goals to tie the game at 1-1 shortly into the second session. Oberlin then grabbed a 2-1 edge as Amelia Jarvinen converted an assist from Joelle Sesar into her first goal of the season.

The Beavers responded by cashing in a free kick opportunity before the second half horn to force the extra frames.

No team was able to gain substantial possession in the first OT, forcing Immerman's game-ending heroics. On the play she took a cross from Ariel Kahrl and pushed it past the Bluffton keeper for her third goal of the season.

The win snapped a four-game losing streak for Oberlin and improved its record to 3-4-1 on the year.

Oberlin had its chances to win in regulation as it fired off a season-high 34 shots - including 18 on goal, but many attempts by were directed right at Beavers goalie Katy Wisby as she totaled 15 saves in the game.
