WINTHROP — Freshman Sierra Huff scored an unassisted goal a minute and 30 seconds into overtime to give the Winthrop girls soccer team a 2-1 victory over Telstar in a Mountain Valley Conference game Monday afternoon.
The victory is believed to be the second for the Ramblers in four years.
“Very surreal,” said Winthrop coach Jaynelle Smith, who is in her second season. “The Winthrop girls were very excited, very shocked. It is very surreal, although I feel like we’ve had the capability to win the last two years but they themselves did know they had it in them.
Shie Smith, a sophomore, gave Winthrop a 1-0 lead midway through the first half. Telstar evened the contest at 1-1 when Lexi Hart scored two minutes after Smith found the back of the net.
Tehya Johnson had 20 saves for the Rebels (0-6-0) while Haley Choate had four for the Ramblers (1-5-0).
