SIOUX CITY, IOWA – Elwood Olsen Stadium became the scene of a David vs. Goliath-esque display today, as Morningside, 0-2-2 in the Great Plains Athletic Conference, upset the league-leading College of Saint Mary Flames, 1-0 to secure their first conference win.
Kyla Syverson's play in goal was the story of the game, as the sophomore keeper recorded a clean sheet with five saves, despite CSM getting a penalty kick early in the first half.
It was Melissa Tsatiris that had the dagger in the match, though, netting an unassisted goal off her own rebound just past the 23 minute mark in the contest.
Morningside hosts Dordt on Wednesday evening, with the women's half of the doubleheader kicking off at 5:30 p.m.
