Ohio State vs Dayton women's soccer

Ohio State Buckeyes vs Dayton Flyers

The game had a slow start. You could tell that Ohio State and Dayton were just kind of figuring each other out. Most of the first half was the two teams trying to get a feel for how the other team played.

Paige Maxwell (osu #10) and Tiffany Cameron (osu #11) worked well together on the forward offensive line. It seemed as though shots were a lot cleaner in the second half of the game. Paige Maxwell had a lot of oportunites to possibly put the ball in the net. Tiffany Cameron often struggled with possession of the ball as two Dayton flyers seemed to always be on the attack, having her 2 to 1.

Chelsy Swackhamer (osu #27) definitely showed her presence the game and is an impressive player for a freshmen player. She had great control of the ball and did a nice job of trying to set up a shot for her fellow teammates. She also had great speed throughout the whole game.

Katherine Boone (Dayton #0) had a very interesting strategy with her goal keeping. At time she would come completely out of her box to catch the 6149623096 ball and attempt saves. Often times she had very risky saves, a few of them sliding through her hands, but at the end of the day she served her team very well, not letting any of Ohio States’ 12 shots through.

Colleen Williams (Dayton #3) is definitely a powerhouse for her team. She is a threat to any team that they go against. She is a fast, aggressive player. She also has a backwards kick that is a good tacktet for “trick” opposing players.

Dayton made their first and only goal off of a corner kick that Alysha Mailon made, then another Dayton player, Katrin Loo, headed in.

Ohio States next game will start the first game of the Big Ten League against Minnesota.
