Box Score

AUSTIN, Texas -- After 90 minutes of back-and-forth soccer, the Northeastern women's soccer team (5-3-0) fell to Texas (7-0-0), 3-2, in its first overtime match of the season.

The loss wraps up Northeastern's two-game trip to the Lone Star State with a 1-1-0 showing.

Senior Hannah Lopiccolo registered her 50th career point when she scored the game-tying goal in the 59th minute. She is the sixth player in Northeastern history to reach the 50-point plateau, joining Veronica Napoli (89 points), Kristen Kowalik (73), Greta Samuelsdottir (65), Liza Robello (58) and Liz Dyjak (53). Freshman Chelsea Domond assisted on Lopiccolo's goal as she sent a perfect ball to her at the back post.

Junior Valentina Soares Gache notched her first goal of the season on a free kick in the 14th minute. She bent a shot around the goalkeeper to open up a 1-0 lead for the Huskies. Goalkeeper Nathalie Nidetch made seven saves in the game.

The Huskies return home on Friday to host Dartmouth at Parsons Field. Kickoff is scheduled for 6 p.m.
