Box Score Greensburg, PA- Graduate student
Bovey Masiole netted the overtime winning goal to lift the Griffins to a 2-1 victory over Salem International University Tuesday afternoon. Seton Hill is now 3-0-1 to start the 2014 season.
Â
Ben Alport jump-started the Griffins to a good start with the first Seton Hill goal scored at 7:57 in the first half. Riding on that momentum the Griffins held a 1-0 lead at half time.
Â
The Griffins would hold the 1-0 lead until the 60-minute mark in the second half until Salem International tied the game 1-1 on their first goal of the game.
The game settled for a 1-1 tie at the end of regulation time and overtime would commence.Â
Â
In the first 10-minute overtime both teams struggled to find the winner. Salem International came up short, missing the net on two shots. The last and final 10-minute overtime was played to determine the winner.
Â
3:53 into the last overtime period,
Bovey Masiole netted a goal off a cross pass from junior
Seon Ripley to win the game. Bovey seems to have a knack for being in the right place at the right time. Last week Bovey
scored the overtime-game winner to beat Wheeling Jesuit University. Once again, in dramatic fashion, the Griffins will stand in overtime.
Â
Both team had 12 shots throughout the match. Junior goalkeeper,
Cameron Evans was credited with 4 saves and his third win of the season.
