AMES, Iowa - Courtney Saunders' goal in double overtime lifted Baylor to a 2-1 Big 12 soccer win over Iowa State in Ames Friday.
Saunders scored in the 116th minute to give new head coach Nick Cowell his first win at Baylor in his first game.
The No. 17 Bears got on the board first when Alyson Miles scored off Saunders assist at the 44:53 mark, just seven seconds before halftime. Baylor led most of the second half, but Iowa State answered Miles' goal at the 78:51 mark as Lindsey Rector scored unassisted.
The defending Big 12 champion Bears just edged the Cyclones in shots on goal, 16-15. ISU goalkeeper Lynley Hilligoss notched 14 saves while BU's Dawn Greathouse, coming back from a season-ending knee injury, recorded eight.
The Cyclones' Erica Florez took five shots on goal while Baylor's Saunders and Miles took four apiece.
The Bears, 1-0, take on No. 8 Nebraska in Lincoln Sunday.
