Penalty Kicks Push Butler Past Valpo in Horizon League Tournament
November 1, 2011
Two halves and two overtimes were not enough to settle the Horizon League quarterfinals on Tuesday afternoon, and after eight rounds of penalty kicks Butler defeated Valparaiso 5-4 in the shootout at Eastgate Field after the two sides played to a 2-2 draw through 110 minutes.
Kristen Manski (Saint Charles, Ill./North H.S.) saved Butler’s first kick in the shootout while Valpo made its first three tries. Tied at three after the Bulldogs’ fourth attempt, Butler’s Julie Burton made a stop of the Crusaders’ fourth attempt. Both keepers saved the fifth attempts and the shootout went to sudden death.
