Redshirt sophomore netted first career goal to put EMU ahead in 75th minute
YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) – Redshirt sophomore Josie Langhans scored her first career goal to propel the Eastern Michigan University soccer team to a 1-1 draw against Ohio University Sunday, Sept. 28, at Scicluna Field.
Langhans (Sun Prairie, Wis./Sun Prairie West) scored in the 75th minute and was assisted by sophomore Ciara Brown (Wyandanch, N.Y./Half Hollow Hills West/Auburn) and freshman Cara Petry (Medina, Ohio/Medina).
Eastern, which sits 2-1-1 in the MAC, settled for one point after the Bobcats leveled the contest with a penalty kick with four minutes left.
How It Happened
A fast-paced first half saw OU hold an 8-5 advantage in shots as both teams spent heavy time in their opponents' defensive third but neither team was able to break through.
As the Bobcats ramped up their pressure, redshirt junior Ella Holland (Dunwoody, Ga./Dunwoody/Samford) made a key save to keep the match scoreless with a diving effort in the 69th minute.
The Eagles struck first in the 75th minute with Brown and Petry setting up Langhans in the corner of the box. Langhans launched a high right-footed shot from 20 yards out going bar down for an impressive first career goal, putting EMU ahead, 1-0.
Ohio ramped up its offense in the final 15 minutes of play, ultimately earning a penalty kick with exactly four minutes to play and netting the equalizer.
Game Notes
» Eastern moved to 4-5-1 overall (2-1-1 MAC) while Ohio moved to 3-5-4 overall (1-1-3).
» Ohio held a 17-10 advantage in shots and a 5-2 margin in corner kicks. Each team had five shots on target.
» Langhans scored her first collegiate goal.
» Petry earned her first collegiate assist.
» Brown recorded her first assist as an Eagle and second in her career. Her first career assist came while she was at Auburn against South Alabama, Aug. 29, 2024.
» Juniors Sarah Van Euwen (Avon Lake, Ohio/Avon Lake) and Rosalie Takacsy (Orchard Park, N.Y./Orchard Park) played all 90 minutes of the match. Van Euwen has played 90 minutes in 15-straight matches, extending to the last five contests of the 2024-25 season. Takacsy's full 90 is her third of the season after playing every minute at Toledo, Sept. 21, and at Southern Indiana, Aug. 28.
