Women's Soccer Snaps Back With 4-3 Win at MSU

WICHITA FALLS, Texas – Four goals by four different players helped lift the St. Mary's Women's Soccer Team to a 4-3 win at Midwestern State on Saturday afternoon.
 
In the ninth minute, freshman Shelby Paniagua (Cibolo, Texas) took a corner kick. Senior Juni Ejere (Weatherford, Texas) intercepted the ball which MSU was trying to clear away from the box, fed Paniagua who had snuck in to the corner of the penalty box and blasted the goal off the crossbar and in. Less than a minute before halftime, the Mustangs (3-3, 1-1 LSC) knotted the score.
 
Senior Tori Permillion (Plano, Texas) scored from about 10 yards out, lofting the goal over the leaping keeper less than two minutes into the second half for the 2-1 Rattlers (7-1, 1-1 LSC) lead. Nine minutes later, the Mustangs again answered to knot the score at 2-2.
 
In the 64th minute, Ejere scored into the lower left corner of the goal from the right side as she drove past a few defenders on a pass by freshman Valerie Hover (McKinney, Texas). It is the eighth goal of the year for Ejere, as she is tied for second in the Lone Star in goals and second with 19 points.
 
Senior Megan Copeland (San Antonio) scored on a free kick after a yellow card in the 72nd minute, drilling the ball into the lower left corner of the net from the right wing for the game winner. It is Copeland's third game-winning goal of the year and the sixth of her career.
 
The Rattlers remain on the road, playing at Angelo State on Wed., Sept. 21 at 7 p.m. StMU is home against Texas Woman's at 1 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 24 as part of a triple header on campus as volleyball plays at 2 p.m. and men's soccer plays at 7 p.m.
