Sophomore scores with 37 seconds left

Eastern Illinois sophomore Cora Erickson delivered her first career college goal in one of the biggest moments lifting the Panthers to a 1-0 road win on Sunday afternoon at Morehead State.
 
Erickson scored with 37 seconds remaining in the contest to move EIU to 5-6-3 overall, 3-2 in the OVC.
 
After playing to a scoreless draw for the first 89 minutes, Alex Tetteh drove the ball down the left side of the field on the attack.  Once stopped she crossed the ball all the way across the goal mouth to find Erickson who sent the shot into the net for the winner.
 
EIU had 17 total shots in the match but just five on target with Amara Leppla (2), Abby Reinl and Adison Welsh providing the other shots on goal.
 
Ella Kratochvil turned in her seventh clean sheet of the season with seven saves with five of the seven shots on goal for Morehead State coming from Jade Walton.
