FOLEY, Ala. -- Freshman Erin Bloomfield took a perfect ball from junior Kate Eubanks just five minutes and 44 seconds into overtime to send Troy to the Sun Belt Conference Quarterfinals, Monday night at the Foley Sports and Tourism Complex.
Bloomfield's right-footed strike gave the Trojans a 1-0 victory, Troy's first in the Sun Belt Conference Tournament under head coach Ged O'Connor.
The result would not have been possible if not for the heroics from freshman keeper Lindsey LaRoche who made eight clutch saves to preserve her second clean sheet of the season.
