Less than five minutes later, the Big Red made it a 2-0 game when Katherine Stone collected a rebound off a White save and slotted the ball to the far post.

Colleen McCabe got the visitors on the board in the 59th minute when she took a pass from Megan Wenrich at the top of the circle and blasted a shot that ricocheted off a Cornell player's stick and into the top corner of the cage to make it a one-goal deficit.

Stephanie Ebersole registered the game-tying goal at the 69:40 mark when she tipped a penalty corner shot by Kelly Harsh to send the game to overtime.

Overtime was a back-and-forth battle with both teams getting ample chances to score but it was Kiersten Cepeda that capitalized for the Lady Eagles when she took a crossing pass from Wenrich and sent it to the far post for the game-winner.

The Big Red travels to Albany on Sunday, Sept. 8 for a contest at 2 p.m.
