LaBar's Second Game-Winning Goal in Two Games Downs Spiders

NEWARK, DE -- Junior Erica LaBar (New Castle, DE/William Penn) scored off a penalty corner at 6:08 of the first overtime to lift Delaware to a 2-1 win over the Richmond Spiders.

Senior captain Kelly Coyle (Lawrenceville, NJ/Lawrenceville) passed the ball into fellow senior Kim Wagaman (Oley, PA/Oley Valley Regional), who set up LaBar's third goal of the season and second game-winner in as many games. She also scored the lone Delaware goal in Friday night's 1-0 win over Villanova.

Richmond (1-2) tied the score at 1-1 on a goal by Lydia Decembrino off a penalty corner after regulation time had expired to force overtime.

Sophomore Jesse Balmer (Telford, PA/Christopher Dock) opened the scoring at the 18:25 mark of the second half for Delaware, knocking a loose ball past Richmond goalkeeper Michelle Swartz.

Delaware goalkeeper Stephanie Judefind (Wilmington, DE/Concord) made two saves, while teammate Heidi Hibschman (Lititz, PA/Warwick) stopped one shot.

The loss was Richmond's second consecutive OT defeat, as the Spiders fell to Villanova on Saturday afternoon, 3-2.

The Blue Hens (3-1) return to action this Tuesday evening when they take on LaSalle. Game time is set for 7 p.m.
