WOMEN'S SOCCER MATCH AT BUTLER POSTPONED

Jags and Bulldogs were tied at 1-1 when play was halted

8/28/2009 6:41:37 PM

INDIANAPOLIS - Friday's women's soccer match at Butler was postponed due to rain and thundershowers in the Central Indiana area. The game will now be restarted on Tuesday night at 5:00 p.m. at the Butler Bowl.

The game was nine minutes deep into the second half when lightning cancelled the action in a 1-1 tie.

Before the game, the contest was delayed for over an hour as rain and thundershowers pelted the area. The precipitation continued to wreak havoc on the run of play in the first half, as Butler struck first before the Jaguars were able to mount any semblance of an attack.

In the 20th minute, a Butler attacker drew a foul just outside the 18-yard box, setting up a dangerous restart. Butler's Molly Kruger played a ground ball through traffic, leading to Abbie Kaul banging home a loose ball in amongst a cast of defenders.

Reigning Summit League Newcomer of the Year Alicia Brock made her season debut in the game's 27th minute and almost immediately set up the equalizer. The 5-foot-9 sophomore got in behind her defender running up the left sideline before crossing a beautiful pass to the middle. On the other end of the ball was fellow sophomore Chelsi McHenry, who headed a shot into the right side of the net, past Butler's Olivia Walter.
