Ames, Iowa - The Iowa State soccer team (7-4, 1-2 Big 12) fell to the No. 23 Oklahoma Sooners (10-2-1, 3-0 Big 12), 3-0, on a cool Friday night at the Cyclone Sports Complex. Iowa State was celebrating 20 years of Cyclone soccer with various alumnae getting honored at half time.

Turning Point of the Game
Iowa State's back line had been solid for a majority of the first half, but in the 31st minute, Oklahoma senior Liz Keester broke the game open with her seventh goal of the season. The Sooners took advantage of a free kick from nearly midfield with Keester being the first one to get to it and tap it into the back of the net.

In the 47th minute, Rachel Ressler scored her fourth goal of the season to give the Sooners a 2-0 lead. Madison Saliba would deliver the final blow in the 84th minute for a final score of 3-0.

Cyclone Game Ball Goes to...
Klasey Medelberg. Medelberg got off two shots in the second half that sparked some life into the Cyclone Sports Complex. The second was a near goal that took a leaping save from the Sooner keeper to prevent it from going in.

Game Notes
*Klasey Medelberg fired two shots in the game to bring her season total to 21, the most on the team
