HUNTSVILLE — There were plenty of fireworks Friday evening at Pritchett Field as Sam Houston rallied from two goals down to knock off Prairie View 4-2 in the season opener.
The Bearkats gave up a goal in the first five minutes, and the Lady Panthers added another one in the 41st minute to take a 2-0 lead.
The second half belonged to Sam Houston.
Kennedy Baquero ignited the rally when Prairie View had a handball violation inside its own box to earn the Kats a penalty kick. Baquero easily punched the ball into the bottom right corner of the net to make it 2-1 in the 63rd minute.
The game got wild from there.
Freshman Solae Young scored her first collegiate goal in the 71st minute to tie the match. Less than two minutes later, freshman Ariana Carrington gave Sam Houston the lead off an assist from Landri Townsend.
Baquero put the finishing touches on the victory by scoring an insurance goal off an assist from Pam Murray in the 83rd minute.
The Bearkats return to action Sunday when they host ULM at 1 p.m.
