MANCHESTER, N.H. – A penalty kick by Laurie Boland (Worcester, MA) 5:49 into the first overtime session lifted Southern New Hampshire University to a 1-0 Northeast-10 women’s soccer victory over Pace University Saturday afternoon at Larkin Field.  The win, the second straight for the Penmen, improves them to 3-2-1 overall and 2-1 in NE-10 play, while the Setters are now 2-3-1 overall and 0-2-1 in the league.

Following two scoreless periods, Boland got the Penmen on the board when she was pulled down in the box and the officials awarded SNHU a penalty kick.  Boland would take the kick and fired a low liner to the left that snuck under the arms of diving Pace keeper Alexa D’Agostino (Highland Mills, NY).

Stef Young (Natick, MA) registered her second straight shutout for the Penmen and third of the season by turning away two shots as the hosts outshot Pace 12-5.  D’Agostino turned away five shots for the Setters.

Southern New Hampshire returns to action Wednesday (9/12) when it travels to crosstown rival Saint Anselm College for a 4:00 match.
