ST. CHARLES, Mo. – Griffon Soccer is off to a school record, 5-1 start after another overtime win on Sunday at Lindenwood. Bailey Dervin's goal off a Maddy Cowell corner kick in the 98^th minute gave Missouri Western its third overtime win in as many tries this season and the program's first win at Lindenwood since 2012.
 
Dervin's game winner came with less than two minutes remaining in the first overtime to give Missouri Western its third-straight win, all by a 1-0 score and second in overtime. The Griffons were out-shot (16-11) for the second straight game, but controlled the action in the overtime period with three shots to just one by the host school. Lexie Martin improved to 3-0 on the season with a seven-save, shutout performance, her second goose egg of the season in three starts.
 
The win improved Missouri Western's record to 5-1 on the season, one win better than 2015's record 4-1 start. The Griffons return home this week to host a non-conference match against No. 3 Central Missouri, who improved to 5-0 on the season with a 1-0 win against Northwest Missouri on Sunday. The Griffons host the Jennies at 6 p.m. this Friday, before getting into MIAA action with a re-match against Lindenwood at home next Sunday.
