Box Score NEW YORK, N.Y.—Eva Horstman (Edina, Minn./Edina) scored an equalizer goal to send the game into overtime, but Sarah Lawrence College women's soccer was eventually dismissed by John Jay College, 2-1, in the teams' season opener at Randall's Island Park on Friday.

IN SHORT
John Jay (1-0) def. Sarah Lawrence (0-1), 2-1 [OT].

KEY MOMENTS
John Jay opened the scoring with a first-half goal in the 28th minute, but both defenses stonewalled the opposing forwards as the teams combined for four shots on goal in the first half. In the 72nd minute, rookie Horstman fired a perfectly-placed direct kick into the top half of the goal and equalized the game at 1-1. The Gryphons played back and preserved the deadlock at the end of regulation. Four minutes into extra time, the Bulldogs managed to score the decisive goal to clinch the 2-1 win.

GRYPHON LEADERS
Rookie Emily Pressley (Columbia, Mo./Hickman) had a standout day on the Gryphons' defensive line, keeping the game within reach. On the offensive end, sophomore Sophia Spralja (San Clemente, Calif./San Clemente) had four shots in the game, putting three on target and making contact with the post. Rookie goalkeeper Andi Pfau (Bolton Landing, N.Y./Bolton Central) made seven saves in the complete-game effort. Fellow first year Jordynn Figueroa (Gresham, Ore./Gresham) recorded the first shot of her career.

FOR LEHMAN
Backed by goals by Sydney Solimani and Cayleen Young, goalkeeper Kelli Doherty earned the win in the Bulldogs' season opener. Alexis Castillo assisted both goals.
