WVU upends Texas: St. Georges strikes twice in final 13 minutes

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — Bianca St. Georges scored twice in the final 13 minutes as No. 16 West Virginia rallied to stun No. 13 Texas 2-1 on Sunday in women’s soccer action.

Trailing 1-0 in the 77th minute, the Mountaineers (8-3-3, 4-1) earned a break when Texas was whistled for a foul inside the box. St. Georges buried her second penalty kick of the season for the equalizer.

Just 3:09 later, St. Georges delivered her first career game-winning goal.

After Hannah Abraham’s cross was headed out of the box, St. Georges pounced on the ball, beat one defender and directed a left-footed shot past Texas goalkeeper Nicole Curry.
