LWC Women's Soccer wins in overtime over Indiana Wesleyan

By Chris Wells

Amara Safuan scored a golden goal in the 98th minute to lift the No. 6-ranked Lindsey Wilson women's soccer team to a 2-1 overtime victory over visiting Indiana Wesleyan tonight at Walter S. Reuling Stadium.

Sina Cavelti set up the game-winner with the pass off the endline deep inside the penalty box that Safuan buried into the right corner of the net for the win. The goal is the sixth game-winning goal of Safuan's career.

The come-from-behind win was made possible thanks in large part to Cavelti's effort at the end of regulation play. Cavelti ran past three Indiana Wesleyan defenders and scored the game-tying goal in the 88th minute to ultimately send the game into overtime.
