After falling behind 1-0 against Western Michigan on Sunday, the Central Michigan soccer team scored two second-half goals to beat the Broncos and earn its first Mid-American Conference win of the season.

Sophomore forward Alexis Pelafas scored the equalizer in the 60th minute and freshman Marle Bringard scored the game-winning goal 10 minutes later.

Pelafas' goal gives her 10 this season, tying her for second nationally in total goals. Kristen Knutson got the win in goal for CMU.
