GCU Stunned in Double OT by Visiting Wilmington, 1-0

LAKEWOOD, NJ- Having been outshot, 26-6, visiting Wilmington University proved that the only column which mattered was the scoring column as the Wildcats escaped Investors Savings Bank Field with a 1-0 victory Tuesday afternoon. A goal by Clorissa Jones (Fr.-Rising Sun, MD) with 1:31 remaining  in double overtime (108:29) left the Georgian Court University soccer squad dumbfounded.

The Lions (1-3, 1-1 CACC) dominated the scoresheet with 11 corner kicks while Wilmington (2-1, 1-1 CACC) committed eight more fouls than the home team (9-to-1), but GCU squandered numerous opportunities througout the match.

Wilmington goalkeeper Amanda Walters (Jr.-Essex, MD) also played a vital role in the Wildcats' success as she gathered 15 saves in net for the visitors.

The game-winning tally serves as the first collegiate goal for Jones. Brittany Rhodes (Jr.-Baltimore, MD) registered the assist on the game-winner.

Georgian Court's Shealyn Sullivan turned away three Wilmington shots in the hard luck defeat.

GCU returns to play this Saturday morning with a CACC contest at Caldwell College. Start time is scheduled for 11 AM.
