The rain didn't stop yesterday and neither did the goals.
The Kansas soccer team tied its record for most goals in a game in defeating Central Missouri State 4-1 yesterday afternoon on a wet and sloppy Super Target Field after falling to Iowa 5-1 on Friday.
"We've been struggling to score," Kansas head coach Dan Magner said. "We scored four today, so that was plus for us."
However, the game didn't start well for the Jayhawks. For the fourth time in their five matches, the Jayhawks conceded the first goal.
In the seventh minute, Jennies midfielder Megan Heideman took a shot from about 18 yards out. The shot was deflected in the goal by Jayhawk midfielder Natalie Hooydvel past goalkeeper Jen Fecke's left hand.
The Jayhawks had an opportunity to equalize in the 11th minute when forward Lindsay Kennedy was dragged down in the penalty box. Defender Jackie Dowell lined up to take the penalty shot but she kicked it wide right.
However, it took Dowell only two minutes to redeem herself. She took a free kick from the right left side of the penalty box. Jennies goalkeeper Carrie Payne tried to push the ball over the top of the goal, but it slipped through her hands and bounced in the open goal.
"I was excited about the goal,"
Dowell said. "I just wanted to get the ball into the mix, into the area. I was happy that I did get an opportunity to redeem myself. I wasn't mentally focused on the penalty kick,"
The Jayhawks took the lead for good in the 17th minute. Defender Kylie Watts pounded in a header following a corner kick from midfielder Katie Lents.
The Jayhawks had more opportunities to score in the first half, but the standing water on the field made it difficult for Kansas to capitalize.
Another Jayhawk experienced redemption in the 53rd minute when Hoogveld made a long run with the ball, beat four defenders and shot the ball into the lower-left corner of the goal from about 20 yards out.
"It felt good to score, and I felt I had to make up for the goal I deflected in," she said.
The Jayhawks put the finishing touches on the victory in the 87th minute when substitute Erin Hon followed up a shot by midfielder Dani DeGuerre with her first goal of the season. The ball rolled straight to the unguarded Hon, who had no trouble putting it in from only three yards out.
Although the win and goals were satisfying, Magner still saw room for improvement.
"We need to work on collective pressure," he said. "The forwards need to pressure their defenders and the midfielders need to join in. Then, all the defenders can do is dribble, not a smart thing to do in this weather, or dump it into our end."

BIG MONDAY
SHARE THE ROAD
We can't stress it enough.
Safety is very important.
Cyclists are more vulnerable
than motorists, and thus
motors have a greater responsibility. A 3000 pound car will inflict greater damage than a 25 pound bicycle.
As you're driving, cycling, and walking around town, please be alert, be aware, and share the road. Lawrence.
It's an attitude we can live with!
