Aug. 20—A late goal broke a 1-1 tie and gave host Southern Illinois-Edwardsville a 2-1 win over Indiana State in the Sycamores' regular-season opener Thursday night.

ISU has its home opener at 1 p.m. Sunday against Northern Illinois.

SIUE struck early with a goal by Grace Cobb in the fourth minute of the match to put the Cougars up 1-0.

The Sycamores were held to just one shot attempt in the first half but kept SIUE off the board after the initial goal to go into halftime down by just one. Tara Hoffman made four saves.

Less than five minutes into the second half, Indiana State drew a penalty inside the box which awarded a penalty kick. Mackenzie Kent cashed in on the attempt for the Sycamores first goal of the season to tie the match at one.

Hoffman would make four more saves in the second half to finish the night with eight. SIUE's 10th shot attempt of the night found the back of the net in the 89th minute to put the Cougars up 2-1 and propel them to the victory.

Indiana State finished the match with six shot attempts, three of them being on goal. Kent and Katie Yankey each had two while Audrey Stephens and Anna Holcombe took one apiece.
