IOWA CITY, IOWA - Saint Louis University women's soccer rallied to tie the score early in the second half, before falling 2-1 in overtime at Iowa this afternoon.

Iowa's Kate Walse scored both Hawkeye goals, including the game winner in the 110th minute.

The Billikens dominated play in the first half, outshooting Iowa 14-7, but could not finish their scoring opportunities. Walse put the Hawkeyes on the board first with a seven-yard strike in the 27th minute. Musschoot hit the equalizer from five yards out off a pass from sophomore Shannon Myers (Cincinnati, Ohio/Lakota West).
