BETHLEHEM, Pa. --- The Moravian College field hockey team rallied from a two-goal deficit to force overtime before falling to visiting Goucher College, 3-2 in the first extra session Sunday afternoon on John Makuvek Field in the 2018 Landmark Conference season finale for both schools and Senior Day for the Greyhounds.
The Gophers scored the lone goal of the opening half in the 25th minute to head to the intermission with a 1-0 lead. Goucher added a tally in the 43rd minute to extend its advantage to 2-0.
The Hounds would get onto the scoreboard in the 55th minute when freshman forward Ava Edwards one-timed a pass from sophomore midfielder Erica Heaney into the cage for her first collegiate goal. Heaney would find a loose ball and put it into the net for her second goal of the season and the equalizer in the match in the 58th minute.
Neither team would score in regulation, forcing the teams into the first 10-minute overtime. Goucher would draw three penalty corners in the overtime, scoring on a loose ball after the third one 7:31 into the session.
