Western Kentucky freshman Olivia Stanley scored the first goal of her collegiate career just before halftime, but Lipscomb rebounded with a second-half goal as the Lady Toppers battled to a 1-1 draw against the Bisons on Friday at the WKU Soccer Complex.

WKU (1-2-2) held a halftime lead for the second straight match but was unable to put away the Bisons, as Lipscomb (2-1-2) got on the board with just over four minutes remaining in regulation. The Lady Toppers held a sizable 21-11 advantage in shots, while Lipscomb took five corner kicks to WKU’s four on the night.

Both Stanley and Victoria Mayo tallied their first points of the 2018 season, with Mayo’s deflected shot setting up Stanley’s score in the 42nd minute. Sarah Gorham led all players with five shots, including three on goal, while Stanley chipped in four shots of her own in only 33 minutes of action off the bench.

In goal, WKU’s Bailee Witt played the full match and made five saves.

WKU will return to action Monday at 6 p.m. against Kentucky Christian at the WKU Soccer Complex.
