(Chickasha, OK) – In their second and final game of their Oklahoma trip, Hastings scored twice in the first half and their defense made some big plays to come away victorious at #23 University of Science and Arts, 2-1.
Hastings took an early lead on a corner kick from senior Megan Lampe that was initially kicked off the crossbar by sophomore Peyton Tanner. The ball rebounded back in Hastings' favor to senior Millie Gell, who tapped it in to put the Broncos ahead 1-0 in the 15th minute.
Freshman Sofia Rabinovitz scored the second goal of the half in the 42nd minute after a free kick by Lampe was deflected to Rabinovitz by the USAO goalkeeper, putting the Broncos up 2-0 at the break.
