SWOSU Secures Another Shutout as Rabo Chases History

 

WEATHERFORD, Okla. – SWOSU soccer shutout Harding 2-0 at the SWOSU Athletic Complex today, with both goals being scored by Alimata Rabo.

Rabo was the offense for the Dawgs today, scoring the only points of the game. Her first goal was impressive. She took the ball from the defender at around midfield and outran the remaining Bison defenders to score the first goal of the game. She would score an 89' goal to make sure that SWOSU would secure the victory. These two goals put her at 76 career goals. That is currently number two in SWOSU history. She is also second in career points scored, with 182. She is just behind Sandra Nabweteme in both categories. Nabweteme has 191 career points and 78 career goals. If Rabo can recreate games like this, she will clear both records and become the greatest scorer in SWOSU soccer history.

 
SWOSU dominated Harding in every offensive statistic. They had more shots (21-6), shots on goal (8-1), and corner kicks (6-5). Everything seemed like it was clicking on defense for the Dawgs as well. This win is the third shutout of the season for SWOSU, with all of them coming in GAC conference play. Rabo had eight total shots and four shots on goal in the game. Ruth Vasquez accumulated four total shots and an assist in 52 minutes of play. Brenna McGuirk, Brianna Benitez, and Emmy Wagner all added two shots a piece. Ashley Hughes had an easy day today, saving the only shot on goal that the Bison mustered.

 
This shutout elevates SWOSU to the sole holder of second place in the GAC. They are one of two teams still undefeated in conference play (Oklahoma Baptist). They go to 2-4-3 on the season and 2-0-1 in GAC contests. Their next game is a Senior Day showdown with third place Ouachita Baptist on October 1 at 11:00 AM at the SWOSU Athletic Complex.
