The Lady Tigers avoided Neosho’s upset bid and escaped with a 2-1 win on the road in double overtime.
The teams were scoreless in the first half, and Neosho took the lead with the first goal of the game early in the second half.
The Wildcats stayed on top until about ten minutes left in regulation. That’s when Sierra Casagrand took a pass from Samantha Minor and netted the equalizer, making the score 1-1.
Neither team could put the ball in the net for the remainder of regulation, or during the first overtime period. But Sara Marcotte scored the game-winner in the second overtime to give the Lady Tigers the victory.
The win also marked another milestone for the program, as the Lady Tigers scored the 50th goal of the season.
