October 16, 2001 Lafayette stuns Blue Hens in double-overtime
EASTON, PA -- The University of Delaware field hockey team could not finish off Lafayette College (9-3) Wednesday afternoon, falling, 3-2, in double-overtime at Metrzgar Field. After holding a 1-0 lead at halftime, Kelly Coyle scored minutes into the second period to provide the Hens with a two-goal lead. Lafeyette's defense contained the UD offense the rest of the way, limiting America East goal leader Juli Byrd (10 g) to just two shots. The Leopards tied the match with two goals in the final 15 minutes of regulation to force overtime. UD outshot Lafayette 4-1 in overtime, but one shot was all that Lafayette needed. Melissa Farrand scored the game-winner with 5:42 left in the second overtime. Goaltender Heidi Hibshman stopped seven shots in the losing effort for Delaware (9-6).
