How it Happened

  • First-year Jordyne Stong gave the Bulldogs the lead back mid-way thru the fourth quarter scoring on a shot just inside the circle off a blocked shot.
  • SU had the answer however just 52 seconds later as the game went into overtime.
  • Both teams had outstanding chances to score early in the overtime period and junior Kayla Yeatman came up with a big save extending the game robbing a Mustang who barreled into the circle 1-v-1, stoning her shot.
