The Wahine soccer team won the OHANA Hotels and Resorts No Ka Oi tournament with a thrilling 2-1 overtime win tonight at the Waipi'o Peninsula Soccer Stadium.
Chelsea Miyake's penalty kick in the 103rd minute proved the game winner as UH improved their undefeated home streak to seven matches (6-0-1) dating back to last season. Tournament MVP Tiana Fujimoto scored the other UH goal, making it her third straight match she scored at least once. Fujimoto has now scored a team-high four goals on the season.
Utah Valley scored first when Lexi Robison shot a rocket from inside the box in the fourth minute. UH dominated the second half but needed a late goal to pull off the win. The Rainbow Wahine out-shot the Wolverines, 18-6, with eight of their shots coming on goal.
The Rainbow Wahine improved to 3-1 with their third straight win.
They will now host Drexel on Friday, August 31 at 7pm HST
