Newcastle, Okla. -- Ciara Mitchell netted the game-winning goal just 2:48 into the first overtime period to propel the Mid-America Christian University Lady Evangels to a 3-2 victory over the Texas Wesleyan University Lady Rams in a Sooner Athletic Conference matchup at Newcastle High School in Newcastle, Okla.  The match was played in Newcastle due to wet field conditions on the MACU Soccer Field. 

Mitchell's score came at the 7:18 mark of the extra session off an assist from Chelsea Swisher. 

Swisher had staked the Lady Evangels (8-4, 2-3 SAC) to a 2-0 lead at the half with two first-half goals.  Her first score came just 2:48 into the match on an assist from Kaci Power, while her second score came when she took a nice feed from Mitchell at the 40-yard line and dribbled in from the right side to the net. 

The Lady Rams (8-2-2, 1-2-2 SAC) rallied to to tie the score on a goal from Zamora Bell in the 62nd minute and a goal by Alexis Michaelkovich at the 75:59 mark. 

Swisher had a match-high 17 shots as the Lady Evangels out-shot the Lady Rams 17-11 overall and 9-4 on-goal.  

Kaitlyn Whitten and Kenady Maynard combined for two saves for MACU, while Nikki Lockwood made six stops for the Lady Rams.  

The Lady Evangels will next be in action on Friday afternoon (Oct.18) at Southwestern Christian University at 12:30 p.m. in Bethany, Okla.
