Oregon State Women’s Soccer Suffers Second Straight Defeat, Eyes Bushnell Showdown

A 2-0 loss to Lipscomb exposes defensive frailties and missed chances as the Beavers prepare for a pivotal home test

A rocky start

Oregon State Women's Soccer fell to Lipscomb 2-0, slipping to 0-2 in the early season and leaving the Beavers searching for their first win and goal of the campaign.

Defensive lapses

Goalkeeper Alexi Morgan was tested throughout, conceding twice while making three saves. A yellow‑card penalty in the 65th minute highlighted the team's disciplinary struggles, and a one‑on‑one chance by Abigail Ross in the 77th minute underscored Morgan's difficulty handling isolated breakaways.

Chances created

London Tsuma orchestrated play down the flank, positioning the Beavers to threaten Lipscomb's defense, while Morgan Long and Abby Smith each tested the opposition with shots on goal. Despite sustained pressure, the final product was lacking, and a late strike by Tatum Ahlemeyer sealed the defeat.

A chance to rebound

The Beavers will host Bushnell on August 19th at 6 PM Pacific, a match that could provide the spark needed to reverse their early‑season slump. The game arrives after a single shot was recorded in their opening contest against South Carolina, underscoring the need for more decisive finishing.
