INDIANAPOLIS - The IU Indianapolis women's soccer team extended its unbeaten streak to three-in-a-row as the Jaguars played Robert Morris to a 1-1 draw at Carroll Stadium on Thursday night (Oct. 9). Sophomore Keilah Muldrow deposited her team-high third goal of the season and the Jaguars fired a season-high 25 shots, putting 13 on frame, in the tie. Caroline Kelley earned her third assist in the past four games and senior Sarah Henson also collected an assist on Muldrow's score. 

"We are creating so many more opportunities - chances to put it in the back of the net," head coach Angela Berry White said. "I'm proud of the way we came out and got up on top and then we just couldn't hold on. Credit to Robert Morris for converting when they had the opportunity."

Muldrow got the Jaguars off to a flying start in the 13th minute, burying a finish from close range after a smooth combination up the left side. Kelley sprung Henson forward before the speedy left forward centered a pass to Muldrow. The Ohio-native tucked a shot just under the bar from point blank range for the night's initial goal. 

"Her energy is outstanding - it really is," White said of Muldrow. "When she brings it, everybody else raises their game."

The Jags just missed a chance to double their lead in the 66th minute when a RMU keeper Emma Cameron and the defense withstood a flurry from the attack. Kelley had an initial header attempt cleared off the line, followed by attempts from Lindsey Castilo and Sarah Henson that were defended from in close. Ultimately, RMU deflected the ball aside for an IU Indy corner that later resulted in Gianna Kincaid misfiring from distance. 

IU Indy (3-8-2, 2-2-1 HL) carried the run of play throughout, finishing with a 61-39 possession advantage with the bulk of the control in RMU's end of the field. However, the Colonials found an equalizer in the 69th minute when Madison Hurst was left all alone at the far post and headed a cross from Ava Trethewey past Sarah Bambrick for her third score of the season.

Kelley led all players with eight shots, while Castillo closed with five of her own. Cameron was up to the task, recording 11 saves on the night to keep her side in the match. Bambrick registered seven saves at the other end behind the typically stingy IU Indy back line. 

"We definitely do well when we keep one and two-touch possession and I think we did a great job of that throughout the game," freshman Shannon Phillips said. "I think we could've finished some of our chances a little better, but overall, I think we had possession the majority of the game and we did create chances. Now we've just got to keep finishing them."

The Jaguars will return to action on Sunday (Oct. 12) when they host Youngstown State at 1:00 p.m. on Senior Day at Carroll Stadium.
