OXFORD - Oxford combined good defense with timely offense, and picked up its first win of the season beating Sidney 2-1 in overtime Wednesday.

"Our offense was able to work the ball around outside tonight," said Oxford coach Sierra Badger. "Taylor Smith did a great job of being versatile, and getting the ball to the corner to cross it."

The winning goal in extra minutes came with 7:10 left in the first overtime period.

From the defensive end, Jillian Finch allowed Oxford to switch fields quickly with a long kick that eventually found Hailey Fleury for the game-winner.
