true Gwynedd Mercy 1, Rosemont 1
BOX SCOREROSEMONT, PA. -- Gwynedd Mercy and Rosemont walked off the pitch Wednesday deadlocked in a 1-1 tie in Colonial States Athletic Conference action.
The Griffins (9-5-1, 6-1-1 CSAC) had their sights on a playoff berth with a win, but the points gathered on the tie, currently keep them in second place with 19 points.
The Ravens (8-5-3, 5-3-1 CSAC) jumped ahead in the 18th minute as a free kick from Courtney Whelan from about 35 yards out was out of the grasp of Griffin keeper
Jess Tadley (Cherry Hill, N.J./Cherry Hill West).
Gwynedd Mercy was able to knot things up at 1-1 in the 66th minute when junior
Kerri Petroski (Philadelphia, Pa./Little Flower) crashed the net after her corner kick attempt to knock in her fourth goal of the season.
After no scoring in the first overtime, the second saw chances on both sides. Rosemont's Haley Philpott had a scoring chance in the 105th minute but her attempt from the left side skidded just past the right post. Less than two minutes later, senior
Casey Gaughan (Philadelphia, Pa./Villa Joseph Marie) had a good luck from about 15 yards out but her blast drew iron on the left side.
Tadley ended with three saves on the night. Rosemont goalie Jenna Kaiser recorded nine. GM would outshoot, the Ravens, 19-9, including 10 attempts in the second half and six in the extra time.
Gwynedd will celebrate senior day on Saturday, when Notre Dame of Maryland visits for a 3 p.m. start.
