COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Brooke Rittman's unassisted goal nearly nine minutes into overtime lifted Air Force to a 3-2 victory over Central Michigan Friday in a non-league soccer match.
The loss, CMU's second consecutive, left the Chippewas 1-4-1. CMU plays Sunday at Colorado College (3-1-2). The Tigers defeated Oakland, 1-0, on Friday.
Laura Gosse and Kaylin Hoomaian scored for the Chippewas. Hoomaian's goal, unassisted on a free kick from 25 yards, with under seven minutes remaining in regulation tied it 2-2.
It was the first career goal for Hoomaian, a sophomore.
Gosse scored her team-leading third goal off the season late in the first half on a give-and-go with Emily Cooksey, staking the Chippewas to a 1-0 lead. It was the first assist of the season for Cooksey.
Angela Karamanos scored back-to-back goals - the first in the 63rd minute, the second in the 65th -- to give Air Force (2-3-0) a 2-1 advantage. Both goals came on headers off of Kristen Shimkus corner kicks.
Air Force outshot the Chippewas, 24-7, including 5-0 in overtime. The Falcons also held a 9-0 advantage in corner kicks.
Maddy Bunnell made eight saves in goal for the Chippewas. Alex Kahalley made five saves for the Falcons.
