EUGENE, Ore. – Defender Kylie Farmer was named Big Ten Freshman of the Week after helping Oregon come from two goals down to tie Iowa 3-3 on Sunday.
Â
Trailing 3-1 with less than 10 minutes to play, Farmer drove a long, high ball from the right side that Hawkeye goalkeeper Braelynn Galt batted away at the goal line. The ball fell to Cailin Bloom's feet and she one-timed a shot home from point-blank range pull the Ducks within one at 3-2.
Â
Bloom's attack then set up Farmer's game-tying goal in the 84th minute. On a corner kick from the right side. Bloom got to the ball at the far post and headed a shot on goal that hit an Iowa defender and fell to Farmer, who poked the ball into the net with her right foot.
Â
It was the first career goal and assist for Farmer, who also attempted a season-best three shots against the Hawkeyes.
Â
This is the first weekly honor for Farmer, who is the second Duck to win Big Ten freshman of the week this year. Teammate Shiloh Baird was recognized after the first week of the season.
Â
Oregon hosts No. 25 Michigan in its final regular season home game Friday at 6 p.m. (Big Ten Network).
