Box Score WICHITA, Kan. (Sept. 30, 2017) – Down four goals at halftime, Oklahoma Christian didn't quit on Saturday afternoon, and as a result, the Lady Eagles threw a bit of a scare into Newman (Kan.).

OC cut Newman's sizable lead in half – with Lauren Parker playing a key role in both scores – before the Jets answered with two late goals for a 6-2 win at Wilkins Field.

Karen Tamayo had two goals and an assist for Newman (7-3-1, 4-2-1 Heartland Conference), while Rosa Urista-Chico added a pair of goals for the Jets. Chanie Scrivner scored her first career goal for OC (1-9, 0-7).

Newman struck quickly, with three goals in the first 19 minutes, by Tamayo in the eighth minute, Urista-Chico in the 10th minute and Tamayo again. Colleen Howland's goal in the 42nd minute gave the Jets a 4-0 lead.

But the Lady Eagles got one back in the 50th minute, as the Jets failed to clear a corner kick by Parker, instead accidentally knocking it into the net for an own goal. Eight minutes later, Parker took another corner kick and Scrivner shot past Newman goalkeeper Ashley Sweetnam to draw OC within 4-2.

Madison Brinkman almost pulled OC closer in the 57th minute, but her shot from the top of the penalty box went wide.

Kaitlyn Logan gave Newman some insurance with a goal in the 61st minute, off a cross by Tamayo, and Urista-Chico sealed the win for the Jets by scoring in the 76th minute.

Newman outshot OC 20-4. OC goalkeeper Addison Milner made five saves – increasing her league-leading total to 73 – while Sweetnam had one save.

OC's six-game road swing will continue Tuesday at 6 p.m. with a nonconference game at Northwestern Oklahoma State in Alva.
