AUSTIN, Texas – There aren't many statistical milestones left to write on Lexi Missimo's collegiate soccer résumé, but the senior midfielder moved closer to becoming the latest 50-goal, 50-assist student-athlete in NCAA Division I women's soccer during Texas' 2-0 win against Central Michigan.
Less than 17 minutes into Sunday's action, Missimo converted her 13th consecutive – and career – penalty kick attempt that came as a result of Central Michigan's Gabriella Sapia taking down Trinity Byars in the 6-yard box. Byars, Texas' senior forward, was trying to send a loose ball into the back of the net after, seconds earlier, CMU goalkeeper Allison LaPoint made a save on a Hannah Waesch shot but could not gather the ball.
