Box Score

NEWBERG, Ore. – Capitalizing on a penalty kick opportunity midway through the second half, George Fox University's Jenny McKinsey cashed in on the Oregon Institute of Technology's foul to give the Bruins a hard-fought 1-0 win over the visiting Owls in a non-conference women's soccer match Monday afternoon here at Morse Field.

The Bruins maintained control of the game for the most part, out-shooting the Owls 24-9 overall and 11-4 in shots on goal, but were turned away repeatedly by Tech keeper Jaclyn Unruh, who had 10 saves.  Bruin goalie Sally Page collected four saves in posting her second shutout in as many games this season.

The lone break in the defensive struggle finally came in the game's 64th minute.  George Fox midfielder Nicole Akiu dribbled into the box from the right wing and was winding up for a shot when she was tripped by a Tech defender.  McKinsey, who also scored the lone goal of the game in George Fox's season-opening win over Southern Oregon University on Saturday, took the penalty kick and lined it to the left of Unruh for the winner at 64:44.

George Fox (2-0) plays again Wednesday, taking on its third straight NAIA and Cascade Collegiate Conference opponent with a 12:00 noon match at Eastern Oregon University.  Oregon Tech (1-6) is off until Saturday, Sept. 27, when the Owls will host Northwest Christian College at 5:00 p.m.
