Maroons Win on Late Goal
CHICAGO -- Sophomore midfielder Claire Mackevicius' (Belmont, Mass./ Belmont) goal in the 88th minute lifted the 20th-ranked University of Chicago women's soccer team to a 3-2 victory over Dominican University Sunday at Stagg Field.
With the score even at 2-2 and overtime looming, Mackevicius took a pass from freshman forward Meghan Derken (Madison, Conn./ Hand) and fired a shot past Dominican goalkeeper Megan Schulz with 2:53 left in the contest.
The teams traded goals in the game's first 10 minutes. After Chicago freshman forward Sara Kwan (Irvine, Calif./ University) converted a penalty kick in the eighth minute for her first career goal, Dominican answered in the 10th minute on the first of Ashley Meyer's two scores.
Chicago (2-0) went ahead in the 39th minute when senior forward Allison Hegel (Vienna, Va./ Jefferson) notched her first goal of the season. Derken collected the assist, the first of two on the day.
Meyer tied the game at 2-2 in the 74th minute following a scramble in front of the Chicago net resulting from a Dominican corner kick, its only one of the afternoon.
Chicago outshot the Stars (0-2) 16-3, but saw its seven-game shutout streak come to an end. Dominican's first goal was the first by a Chicago opponent in 757 minutes dating back to last season.
