CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Senior midfielder Karen Juarez scored tonight's golden goal in the 105^th minute of action to lift the second-seeded Queens University of Charlotte women's soccer team (14-3-1) over the seventh-seeded Lincoln Memorial University Railsplitters (7-7-2) in the quarterfinal round of the 2021 South Atlantic Conference Championship.

Despite outshooting the Railsplitters 12-6 in regulation, Queens was able to put just one shot on goal as neither team found the back of the net in 90 minutes of action which forced tonight's match into overtime.
