Orange girl power
With all the football gloom and doom in Stillwater, at least Oklahoma State’s women’s sports are giving the orange-clad faithful something to celebrate.
The Cowgirl soccer team scored a big-time upset victory Sunday at the Notre Dame Inn At Saint Mary’s Classic. It defeated Notre Dame 2-1 in overtime in South Bend.
OSU coach Colin Carmichael called the victory the biggest in the program’s history.
Hard to argue.
Notre Dame was the NCAA runner-up a year ago and ranked ninth in the nation. The Fighting Irish also had a 43-game home unbeaten streak.
No more.
Sasa Jackson scored the game winner on an assist from Kasey Langdon just 79 seconds into overtime.
Langdon, Yolanda Odenyo and Siera Strawser landed on the all-tournament team. Odenyo, the Cowgirls do-everything star, also snagged a spot on Soccer America Women’s Team of the Week. She moved from her usual midfield spot to defender in the win against Notre Dame.
