Morgan Brown’s late-game heroics lead Horned Frogs past the Longhorns
AUSTIN, Texas – The No. 4 TCU women's soccer team, thanks to a goal by Morgan Brown in the closing minutes, defeated Texas, 3-2, on Thursday night at Mike A. Myers Stadium.
THE RUNDOWN
The Horned Frogs (4-0) and Longhorns played in an action-packed first half full of multiple momentum shifts. Texas was able to strike first, scoring off a penalty in the eighth minute thanks to a handball inside the box from TCU.
In the 20th minute, AJ Hennessey lofted in a ball to Morgan Brown who headed it over to Kamdyn Fuller. The freshman was able to field the ball right near the goal line and head it in to equalize the game at 1-1.
With the final 10 minutes of the first half nearing, Marli Galdamez went on a solo run and nearly put one in the back of the net. Her shot was batted by the Longhorn goalie, right to Kaela Martinez, who put it in the back of the net for her first career goal. The Frogs would head into half leading 2-1, outshooting Texas, 11-7.
To open the second half, the Longhorns were able to equalize the game at a 2-2, capitalizing on a corner kick. Each team would trade energetic bursts in the opponents back half, with neither being able to capitalize despite multiple close calls.
In the closing minutes, Kamdyn Fuller started a counterattack and fired a ball to Grace Vest past midfield. Vest ripped off a beautiful shot that was just touched out of play by the Texas goalkeeper. On the ensuing corner, Fuller sent in a cross that was headed in by Morgan Brown to give TCU the late advantage it needed to secure the win over the Longhorns.
Olivia Geller played the whole 90 minutes, securing four saves on the night.
STAT OF THE GAME
2009 – Tonight's win marks the first win for the Frogs in Austin since 2009 and just the second in program history. The win also marks head coach Eric Bell's first victory with the Frogs on the road at Texas.
GAME NOTABLES
TCU will return home to Fort Worth, as the Frogs are set to take on Northwestern on Sept. 4. The game will begin at 7 p.m. and be broadcast on ESPN+.
