After three consecutive 1-0 losses, the Owls defeated Cincinnati 2-1 Thursday for their first win of conference play.
After falling behind 1-0 in the first half, the Owls scored two goals in the final 35 minutes, including redshirt-junior midfielder Gina DiTaranto’s game-winning goal in the 70th minute.
It was DiTaranto’s first goal since Sept. 1 and the Owls first since Sept. 20.
“When you get the chance to go in you just have to make the best of it,” DiTaranto said.
After dislocating her kneecap Sept. 6 in a 3-2 loss against Lehigh University, coach Seamus O’Connor said DiTaranto has been working her way back into form.
