UMBC 1, at Campbell 1 (2 OT) -- Box Score


After not having played each other in nearly 17 years, 90 minutes was not enough time on the pitch for UMBC (1-2-1) and Campbell (2-2-1). The two former Big South rivals dueled to a 1-1 tie in Buis Creek, N.C.

Neither team was able to break through offensively until the 87th minute. That is when UMBC sophomore forward Sarah Kopytko opened up the scoring with her first career goal. Kopytko, who was assisted by Amy Savage on the goal, put the Retrievers up, 1-0, with just 3:19 left in regulation.

However, the one goal was not enough to seal a victory. In the 89th minute, Campbell junior forward Olga Ekblom put a ball past freshman keeper Lauren Kadet. The goal knotted the match, 1-1, and sent it into overtime.

Neither team could break the tie in the extra 20 minutes, though not for lack of trying. The Retrievers took four shots in the two overtimes, with three of those challenging the Campbell keeper, junior Jamie Panfil. Campbell took four shots, with two shots on goal in that span.

Kadet, aside from the late goal, had another stellar performance. In just her third collegiate start, the freshman saved nine shots.
