ITHACA, N.Y. -- Karlee Overguard's extra-attacker goal with 24 seconds left in regulation gave the Cornell women's hockey team a 5-5 tie with the Toronto Aeros on Sunday afternoon at Lynah Rink. Catherine White scored two goals and had an assist to lead the Big Red offense on the day.

Cornell took a 2-0 lead after the first period following goals from White and Laura Danforth. Toronto cut into that lead early in the second period, scoring a power-play tally by Erin Ambrose, but the Big Red put the lead back up to two goals with White's second goal of the day at the 13:58 mark of the second period.

In a wild third period, the Aeros cut into the Cornell lead when Gillian Beggs scored 4:18 into the period. Chelsea Karpenko scored a power-play goal just over two minutes later to make the score 4-2, but the Aeros would strike for three straight goals, taking the lead on Kelly Babstock's goal with 2:55 to play in the third period.

With 45 seconds left, Cornell goalkeeper Katie Wilson came to the bench for the extra skater, and just over 20 seconds later, Overguard knotted the score at five after following up a rebound from Hayley Hughes' shot. Cornell got six shots on goal in the overtime, compared to one for Toronto, but neither side could put home the game-winner.
