Despite a dominant performance in the first 45 minutes, Ross Paule’s Creighton women’s soccer team didn’t get a goal to show for it and thus had to survive a hectic first few minutes of the second half to earn a 2-1 win on the road against the South Dakota State Jackrabbits.
The Bluejays, who improved to 3-1-2 on the season, out-shot South Dakota State (2-3-1) by a margin of 10-1 in the first half, but fell behind 1-0 just 49 seconds into the second period on a goal by Jackrabbit junior midfielder Jennie Scislow. Her header on the far post run was just the second shot of the match, and the first on frame, by South Dakota State.
