Auburn soccer took a dramatic win from the Long Beach State 49ers in Long Beach, California, Sunday afternoon after a game-winning goal from junior Brooke Ramsier in double-overtime.
The Tigers and 49ers remained scoreless through 100 minutes, unable to capitalize on multiple attempts. Auburn held a tight defense with redshirt freshman Sarah Le Beau making eight saves during the match, recording her second shutout of the season in the process.
Junior Casie Ramsier crossed deep in the attacking zone to find her sister, Brooke, who hit the game-winner in the 102nd minute.
The win propelled Auburn’s season to a 2-0-0 record for the first time since 2012, and it was the third win the Tigers have had in California in program history.
The Tigers will return to the Plains for their home opener against UAB on Friday, Aug. 28 at 7 p.m.
