New England College Nips Eagles In Double OT, 1-0

Nashua - Freshman Tamra Comerford (Fremont, N.H.) knocked home a Samantha Levine (Windham, Maine) pass with 4:15 remaining in double overtime to give New England College a 1-0 victory over host Daniel Webster College in a regional women’s soccer matchup Thursday at Eagle Field.

Amy Waller (Berlin, Mass.) made 11 saves for the Eagles (4-8), who dropped their third straight. Kerry Hughes (Wallkill, N.Y.) made seven saves for NEC (7-8).

The Eagles almost won the game in the first overtime period as Kacie Lang (Raymond, N.H.) sent a 10-yarder from the far right side that beat Hughes up high, but the ball ricocheted off the top crossbar and bounced out, preserving the scoreless tie.

The Pilgrims finished with a 21-15 total shots advantage.

The Eagles return to action Saturday visiting Pine Manor College in a regional matchup beginning at Noon.
