The Presidents tied the game on an Amanda Howard unassisted tally at 42:25, and neither team was able to find the back of the net in the remainder of the 70-minute regulation session.

Shenandoah took two of the three shots in the first 15-minute overtime period, and had five penalty corners to W&J;'s two, but could not finish off the contest.

The Presidents outshot the Hornets 24-4 and also held a 19-11 advantage in penalty corners.

SU keeper Chelsea Smith made a season-high 15 saves.
