Penalty Kick Key

Not to be outdone, Harvard freshman forward Susan DeLellis took advantage of a penalty kick opportunity with 18:10 left in the second half to tie the score, and eventually, force the game into overtime.

Ironically, the 30 minute overtime period was dominated by Boston College's offense. Persistent in their attack, the Eagles made countless scoring strikes in the period, only to be thwarted by Harvard's talented corps of fullbacks or standout goalie Brooke Donahoe, who had 13 saves in the game.

But, nevertheless, the Crimson managed to stage one effective offensive strike in the period, and, fortunately, it was enough.

"We're definitely happy to get the win," Wheaton said. "But when your defense holds them to one goal--a great goal at that--and you just scrape by, you know you need to get better. We will."
