AUSTIN, Texas\u00a0 \u2014 Texas native Kate McCallister<\/a> scored the opener to give Oklahoma (9-2-2, 3-2 SEC) the 1-0 lead, but the Longhorns (7-2-3, 2-1-2 SEC) responded with two goals in the second half as Oklahoma came up short, 2-1, Sunday, Oct. 4.<\/p>\n

Texas 2, Oklahoma 1

\nAn offsides call cleared the scoreboard of a Texas opening goal and just over a minute later the Sooners got on the board. McCallister gathered a loose ball in the box and ripped a shot on frame that was deflected before finding the back of the net.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ariana Ellison<\/a> made a few key defensive plays to help quiet the Texas attack and Callie Sullivan<\/a> put up a career day with five saves, but Texas finally broke through. Midfielder Amalia Villareal provided both goals, the first coming on a penalty kick in the 68th minute and the game winner on a goal scored after she was initially blocked.<\/p>\n
