Nervousness exuded from the stands at Neal Patterson Stadium.
No.12 Oklahoma State, which came into the match 5-0 on the season, was down to its final 10 minutes deadlocked at zero with 2-3 Texas State Thursday night.
The shots kept coming for the Cowgirls, but for one reason or another, they kept going awry. Missed shots, blocks by the Bobcat defense, or saves from the TSU keeper, OSU just couldn’t break the seal the way it had so many times in the first five matches of the season.
“When we got it into their attacking half, we were taking 30-foot shots, which are rare,” senior defender Mollie Breiner said.
