ROCHESTER, Mich. –Sophie Wilsey netted the game winner in the 85th minute to lift the Oakland women's soccer team to a 2-1 win over IUPUI Saturday afternoon from the Oakland Soccer Field. 
 
Wilsey's goal, her first of the season, improved the Golden Grizzlies to 5-7-1 (4-0-1 HL) on the year as Oakland's win streak extends to four. The senior took advantage of a set piece late in the game off a perfectly placed corner kick from Sami Lopez to head the ball in give Oakland a 2-1 lead with just over five minutes remaining. 
 
Oakland struck first as Lopez tallied her fifth goal of the year off an assist from Jayna Fraser and Ashley Postma to give the Golden Grizzlies an early 1-0 advantage at 17:49.
 
The Golden Grizzlies' defense allowed just one shot in the first half, leading to IUPUI's lone goal of the game to tie things at one-all heading into halftime. Oakland has outscored its opponents 12-1 the last four games as IUPUI's goal is the first Oakland has allowed in 335 minutes of play, Oakland has outscored its opponents 12-1 in that time.

 Oakland applied pressure all game recording 15 shots compared to IUPUI's two.
