Sunday, October 16, 2022 | Soccer
LEXINGTON, Ky. – A goal in each half ended in a 1-1 tie in Sunday's Florida at Kentucky match held at the Wendell & Vickie Bell Soccer Complex.
The tie was the first point for either team in 2022 Southeastern Conference action. It was also the first tie for both teams since overtime was eliminated this season for NCAA regular-season play.
Sunday's scoring:
Florida's score started off a free kick sent into the middle of the box by Julianne Leskauskas in the 34th minute. The ball pinged around the box before junior Delaney Tauzel put it in at the far post.
It was Tauzel's second goal of the season. She joins Leskauskas, Tessa Barton, Alivia Gonzaelz and Syd Kennedy as the fifth Gator with a pair of goals in 2022.
Gator goalkeeper Alexa Goldberg's second save of the afternoon was key. The Kat's points leader, Hannah Richardson, broke away in the 70th minute and took a hard shot in the box. Goldberg got a hand on the ball to push it up to kick off the crossbar.
The Wildcats found the equalizer in the 80th minute when Madison Jones put in a left-footed shot to the right corner off the assist from Emilie Rhode.
The tie was the fourth in the 34 all-time meetings, with two each in Gainesville and Lexington.

Florida: 2-11-1, 0-6-1 SEC
