As time waned the first overtime period, Vogel played the hero.  She was able to beat Anderson with her shot in the 99th minute for the golden goal winner.

"Peyton got a really nice ball from Bradley in the box and was able to finish," CWU Head Coach Michael Farrand said afterward.  "We were solid for 80 minutes or so, but we gave up five corners in the last 10 minutes.  We need to tighten up a bit, but overall it was a solid game.  It's a great way to start the conference portion of the schedule.  It's a big win for us, we survived to open GNAC play with a win and get points early."

Central Washington was outshot 14-12 by Simon Fraser, but the Wildcats held the advantage in shots on goal 9-7.  Central received 11 corners, while the Clan took just eight.  Fox made six stops on the way to the Wildcats' third victory of 2019.
