Box Score

Dover, Del. - Sophomore forward Sheree Pleasanton (Smyrna, Del./Smyrna) found the back of the cage just three minutes into the first overtime period to help Wesley College advance to the semifinals as the Wolverines notched a 3-2 overtime victory over St. Mary's College of Maryland in the first round of the 2009 Capital Athletic Conference Field Hockey Tournament.

Junior forward Brooke Tadlock (Middletown, Del./Middletown) assisted on Pleasanton's game-winner at 73:04 as fourth-seeded Wesley (12-8) overcame a 2-1 deficit with 1:34 remaining in regulation.  The Wolverines will now face top-seeded Salisbury University in the CAC semifinals on Wednesday.

Wesley jumped on the Seahawks (8-8) early as freshman Abigail Hill (Dover, Del./Lake Forest) notched her first of two goals on the day at 10:20.  St. Mary's evened the contest at 1-1 at 25:51 when freshman midfielder Brooke Masimore (Hampstead, Md./North Carroll) notched an unassisted goal, sending the teams into halftime tied with one goal apiece.

Freshman forward Ali McIntosh (Stevensville, Md./Kent Island) gave the Seahawks a 2-1 lead late in the second half as McIntosh scored an unassisted goal at 58:29.

With St. Mary's closing in on a first round victory, Hill's second tally of the afternoon could not have come at a better time as her unassisted goal at 68:26 sent the contest into overtime.

St. Mary's dominated offensively all day long, firing off 21 shots with 14 being on goal, but junior goalkeeper Sarah Johnson (Honeybrook, Pa./Twin Valley) was up to the task, making 12 saves and shutting out the Seahawks' leading scorer, freshman forward Lauriann Parker (Woodbine, Md./Glenelg).  By shutting down Parker, the Wolverines snapped her six-game consecutive goal scoring streak.

Wesley took 11 shots and posted a 9-8 margin in penalty corners.

Junior Emma Lauhoff (Wayne, Pa./Radnor) notched six stops for St. Mary's.

The Seahawks ends the 2009 season with an 8-8 overall record and a 2-4 conference mark.
