With a tough, double overtime tie in Sunday’s game, the Iowa State women’s soccer team was determined to finish strong in the Cyclone Classic Tournament. Sunday, the ISU women grew fatigued late in the game, but showed up regenerated for Ohio. The Cyclones didn’t waste anytime scoring yesterday. During the first half at the 13th minute mark, Krista Odenwald charged across the right side firing at Ohio’s goalkeeper when the ball was deflected and Nicole Wilcox capitalized on Ohio’s mishap. At the 26th minute, Katie Antongiovanni assisted in a Nicole Wilcox goal as she fired from in front of the goal box. By the half, the Cyclones had out shot the Bobcats 6 to 2 and went into the half with a 2-0 lead. “At the half we knew we wanted one more goal before the end of the game,” Coach Gabbert said, “We were running out of gas and I told them that we needed to just gut it out and play hard.” In the second half the Cyclones came away with their insurance goal at the 21 minute mark when Haley Francis assisted in Katie Antongiovanni’s goal. Antongiovanni faked out Ohio’s goal keeper putting the ball in the corner of the net. Throughout the second half, the Cyclones dominated the field attacking Ohio’s defense and had plenty of opportunities to score but fired high across the net. At the end of the second half, again the Cyclones outshot the Bobcats 8 to 0 and came away with a 3-0 win. “We knew we needed to finish out with a win. It wasn’t pretty, but we got the results we wanted,” Gabbert said. “We played really strong, we did what we needed to do and got it done,” Lindsey Lees said. The Cyclones had to play against Ohio without Lees. She broke her right fibula two inches above the ankle. “It was during a slide tackle that my cleats stuck in the ground and broke the ankle,” Lees said. “It’s devastating because all I wanted to do is play and this doesn’t allow me to,” Lees said, “so I’ll be back and red shirt my fifth year.” On Wednesday, Lees will go into surgery where screws and two separate plates will be inserted in her ankle to make it stronger. “With the loss of Lindsey, it takes a little out of the ability in the backfield,” Gabbert said, “she’s the toughest, most physical and she sets the tone for us.” Gabbert is convinced that Lees will make a complete recovery. “She’ll be fine, this is a very serious injury, but it’s nothing that she can’t come back from,” Gabbert said. Along with the injured Lees, Ali Sullivan suffers from an agitated shoulder, but was still able to play in the Classic. “It got sprained in practice and then I’d land on it, or my opponent would hit it during the game,” Sullivan said. “It’s a tolerable matter,” Sullivan said. “But I’m working through it so I can keep playing.”
