Women's Soccer Falls To Brown In Overtime Heartbreaker

Box Score (PDF)

ITHACA, N.Y. --- In a Senior Day matchup for women's soccer, Brown used two quick goals in the second half to tie the game and send it to overtime. The Bears netted the game-winner with 5:12 to go in the second overtime to top the Big Red, 3-2, Saturday afternoon at Berman Field.
 
After being honored in a pregame ceremony for the women's soccer Class of 2016, senior Charlotte Tate opened the scoring for Cornell (9-2-4, 2-2-1 Ivy) in the 8th minute. Classmate Amanda Gaggioli sent a cannon on net that had to be knocked away by the Brown goalkeeper, resulting in a Big Red corner kick. Gaggioli took the corner, and sent a cross through the 18-yard box. Fellow senior Shanay Fischer got a head on it, sending it Tate, who put it away from within the 6-yard box for her first goal of the season.
 
Tate picked up another point in the 47th minute when she got a crisp pass into sophomore Paige DeLoach, who notched her fourth goal of the season on a shot into the left side of the net to give Cornell the two-goal lead.
 
Brown (5-7-2, 1-3-1 Ivy) answered with goals in the 63rd and 65th minutes to even the score at two. The Bears first tally came when Amanda Lane got the ball to Carly Gould from the ground, and Gould put it away. Less than two minutes later, Celia Story got a foot on a ball within the 6.
 
With 12:33 left in regulation, junior Aimee Tavzel nearly regained the lead for the Big Red, blasting a shot off a Gaggioli corner kick just high.
 
In the first overtime, Tate made an impressive block deep in the box to preserve the tie. But Story netted her second of the afternoon 4:46 into the second overtime period to give Brown the win.
 
Cornell goalkeeper Kelsey Tierney finished with six saves, while Gaggioli led the offense with three shots, including two on target.
 
The Big Red will play its final two contests on the road, beginning with a 1 p.m. matchup at Princeton on Oct. 31.
