We were treated to two wonderful games today. A seesaw battle between
La Salle and
Duquesne ends with La Salle on top. Yellow cards started flying in the second half but crisis averted as Larisa Zambelli stopped the Duquesne PK conversion. Then 7 minutes later Duquesne broke through the ice. Finally La Salle equalized with 1:08 to go on a score by senior defender Kath Hennessey, her first of the year. Madi Bower won it in the 97th on a shot from close range, her 10th of the season.
VCU ended
St Joe's Cinderella run in a 1-0 shutout. Megan Dell converted a PK and recorded her third postseason goal (and just two for the whole regular season).
At noon on Sunday, La Salle meets VCU in the championship.
