WINONA LAKE, Ind. – RV Taylor (11-2-2, 3-2-2) came back from a goal down to secure a draw against No. 20 Grace (9-3-2, 4-2-1) on the road Saturday night.
After falling behind 1-0 in the first half, the Trojans found a spectacular goal from freshman Morgan Fletemeyer to earn a draw in the tight Crossroads League matchup.
The Lancers grabbed the match's first goal in the 22nd minute after registering their first shot four minutes earlier.
The first half continued to be an even affair, with each team finding opportunities in the opposing half hard to come by.
TU capitalized in the 39th minute with the equalizer from Fletemeyer. Claire Nieshalla controlled the ball near the edge of the box and sent multiple crosses in until one found Fletemeyer, who lofted a shot over the keeper and into the back of the net for her first-career goal for the Trojans. Her stunning shot equalized the match at one heading into halftime.
The home team ramped up the pressure in the second half, firing twelve shots compared to just three in the first half. None of them found the net though, as the TU defense and Hannah Brackenbury denied the Lancers.
The Trojans did not get as many opportunities in the second half until the final minutes when Claire Massey and Chloe Sena came agonizingly close to a match-winner that was not to be found in the highly competitive match.
TU returns to Turner Stadium for a matchup against No. 2 Marian (13-0-2, 6-0-1), who currently sits in a tie atop the Crossroads League standings with 19 points, on Wednesday, October 26, with kick-off set for 7:00 pm.
