Wood Rallies App State Soccer Past Longwood

Story Links

FARMVILLE, Va. – Graduate forward Izzi Wood scored two goals in the second half to rally App State Soccer to a 3-2 road victory over Longwood to close out nonconference play.
 
It was the fifth brace of Wood's career and her 27th and 28th career goals moved her into second place in App State scoring history. Wood also moved into first place all-time in career shots (242) and second in career points (64).
 
With the score tied 2-2 in the 66th minute, freshman defender Morgan Chapman played a ball up the far sideline to Shannon Studer at midfield. The senior midfielder gathered the pass, turned and swung her leg into a long ball ahead to Wood, who ran onto it and delivered the go-ahead goal just under the crossbar.
 
Wood tied the game with a penalty kick in the 58th minute after a Longwood (3-4-1) defender committed a handball in the box.
 
App State (4-3) scored the first goal of the game in the 10th minute of play. Sophomore midfielder Walker Bristow curled a corner kick towards the net and Lancer goalkeeper Sara Curtis punched the ball away, but it ended up right at the feet of Olivia Simon who was able to convert a half-volley for her first goal of the season.
 
Longwood answered quickly, scoring just 10 seconds after the ensuing kickoff, before taking the lead on a penalty kick after drawing a foul in the box less than two minutes later.
 
The Mountaineers looked to have the equalizer in the 34th minute of play, but Simon was whistled for offsides on the play.
 
Wood led the Mountaineers with eight shots (three on target), while senior Reagan Sturgill added three shots in her first career start. Chapman, Ellie Garrison and Maddie Williams played all 90 minutes for App State.
 
The Mountaineers will open conference play on Saturday as the team faces Old Dominion in Norfolk, Va. Kickoff is set for 6 p.m. and the game will be broadcast on ESPN+.
