TULSA -- South Dakota State's Danni Healy scored in the first-half and that was all SDSU needed as the Jackrabbits defeated Oral Roberts University, 1-0, in conference play on Sunday afternoon at the ORU Soccer Complex.

The Golden Eagles fall to 8-7-3 on the year and 2-2-3 in league play as SDSU improves to 7-4-4 overall and 5-1-2 in The Summit League.

Shakira Duncan had a chance to get the Golden Eagles on the board first on a scrum in ORU's offensive end, but her shot was saved by a SDSU defender at the 38:31 mark.

South Dakota State struck just minutes later as Healy broke the scoreless tie with a goal at the 40:09 mark off a pass by Kellyn Farrell.

ORU was out-shot 8-4 in the first-half, but held a 5-2 advantage in corner kicks.

The Golden Eagles put pressure on SDSU in the second-half, but the Jackrabbits defense would not allow the home team to get the equalizer.

Duncan had two shots to lead the offensive attack as the Golden Eagles had six shots, one on-goal.

Stef Gurley had another solid game in the net for ORU with six saves.

ORU returns to action next Sunday in their last match of the regular season, hosting Western Illinois at the ORU Soccer Complex at 2 p.m.
