Devine Nets Golden Goal in Double Overtime in 1-0 Triumph Over Wesley


Brittany Hurt

FREDERICK, Md.--Freshman Jessica Devine scored the golden goal for the Hood College women's soccer team (3-4, 2-2 CAC) with 27 seconds left in the second overtime session to lift the Blazers to a dramatic 1-0 double overtime win over the visiting Wesley College Wolverines (3-3, 1-3 CAC) Saturday in a Capital Athletic Conference game at Thomas Athletic Field.

Hood registered its first-ever victory over the Wolverines after suffering defeats in four previous meetings dating back to the 1995 season. In fact, Hood had not scored a goal against Wesley since that matchup in 1995 when it lost 2-1. But Devine's second career tally, which came off a cross from Katherine Rendon, sent the Blazer bench into a frenzy and gave Hood its third win in its last four contests.

Rachelle Buhrman had a solid game in the net, turning away nine Wolverine shot attempts, including a pair in the extra sessions.

Hood, now in sixth place in the CAC standings, next hosts former Atlantic Women's Colleges Conference rival Wilson College Thursday at 4 p.m. at Thomas Athletic Field.
