NEW YORK CITY – The Army West Point women's soccer team scored early, but Columbia came from behind to earn a 2-1 victory on Sunday afternoon at Rocco B. Commisso Soccer Stadium.

Less than a minute into the match, Army (2-6-1) earned a corner kick and took advantage of the early set piece. Bailey Widman took the corner and bent a curling ball into the goal behind Columbia keeper Allison Spencer. Officially the goal was scored 0:40 into the contest.

The Lions (4-3-0) countered in the 17th minute when Rachel Alexander freed herself from a defender and fired a shot past Kimberly Comstock to even the score at a goal apiece.
