Creighton Women's Soccer Strikes First, Brings Home Draw at Marquette 1-1
10/6/2019 3:29:00 PM | Women's Soccer
Milwaukee, Wis. -- The Creighton women's soccer team struck for a goal in the ninth minute, but were forced to settle for a 1-1 draw at Marquette on Sunday, Oct. 6th.
Following Sunday's outcome the Bluejays are 7-4-1 on the season and 1-1-1 in BIG EAST play, while Marquette moved to 3-8-1 overall and 0-2-1 in conference action.
A trio of Bluejays put Creighton in front in the ninth minute of the game as seniors Ashleigh Cearlock and Taryn Jakubowski one touched passes to the left for sophomore Ansley Atkinson. The Minneapolis native crossed a shot from left to right for her first goal of the season.
The Bluejays earned a foul in the 22nd minute in the box, leading to a penalty kick for Jakubowski. Her shot completely fooled Marquette goalkeeper Maddy Henry, but the Illinois native was denied by the left post, keeping it a 1-0 contest.
The score remained 1-0 through halftime, but the Golden Eagles drew a PK of their own early in the second half. Marquette's Katrina Wetherell delivered on the Golden Eagles' chance, knotting the match at 1-1.
Marquette went on to fire off nine more shots at Creighton goalkeeper Katie Sullivan, but the sophomore kept the Bluejays in the match the rest of the way. Sullivan finished with a pair of saves, while Henry collected seven.
Creighton out shot Marquette 18-14 in the contest, yet the Golden Eagles held a 10-4 edge on corners.
Creighton returns home to face Butler on Thursday, Oct. 10th in the Bluejays' annual Pink Game to support Breast Cancer Awareness. Kickoff is set for 7:00 pm.
