Albright Falls to Lebanon Valley in Wild Finish

ANNVILLE, Pa. -- Amanda Smith scored four goals, but Emma Jones scored a free-position goal with one second to play in overtime lifting Lebanon Valley to a wild 13-12 MAC Commonwealth victory over Albright on Wednesday at Arnold Field.

The goal by Jones capped a frenetic finish to a game that featured five ties and four lead changes.

Smith broke an 11-11 deadlock in the fourth quarter with a free-position goal with 1:14 to play that gave Albright a 12-11 lead.

Jones, who scored six goals, tied the game at 12-12 with 49 seconds remaining in regulation on a free-position shot.

Erin Farrell won the ensuing draw control for Albright and her shot was stopped by Shelby Morris with two seconds to play in the game. The Lions were awarded a free-position attempt with one second left in regulation, but Morris made the save to keep the game deadlocked.

Albright, which dropped to 10-6 and 5-3 in conference play, almost ended the game early in overtime when Mariah Cullen won the draw control and raced downfield for a shot that rang off the post.

Following an Albright turnover, Lebanon Valley regained possession and was awarded a free-position shot. The shot found the back of the net with 40 seconds to play in the overtime, but the goal was disallowed when the Lebanon Valley bench players stormed the field prior to the mandatory stick check following each goal.

Lebanon Valley, which improved to 10-5 overall and 6-1 in conference play, was awarded a free-position attempt with three seconds to play and Jones found the back of the net to send the Dutchmen home winners.
