TUSCALOOSA, Ala. - Playing with ten players for the majority of the match and trailing at halftime, Kennesaw State erupted for three second-half goals, including Caitlin Dingle's game-winner with eight minutes remaining, as the Owls downed Alabama, 3-2, on Friday night at the UA Soccer Complex.
"We came together as a team tonight," said a boastful head coach Rob King. "We battled all game long and it was a great road win, especially over a team such as Alabama."
Dingle became the hero of the match in the 82nd minute when she scored her second goal of the game on a shot from just outside the 18 yard box. The Rockdale, Ga. native gathered the ball and fired it under the near post giving Kennesaw State its first victory of the season and their first-ever over a Southeastern Conference opponent.
"It was a great win for us, especially considering we were on the road and facing a quality opponent." shouted a joyful Dingle.
