[ Taneen Legree ]Ohio Wesleyan 2, Denison 1

Oct. 29, 2005

Senior attacker Taneen Legree (Christiana, Pa./Octorara) scored :36 into the second overtime period to lift Ohio Wesleyan over Denison in North Coast Athletic Conference action on Saturday at the Henry Street Field.

Legree scored off a pass from freshman midfielder Caitlin Duggan (New Milford, Conn.) to end the game and give the Bishops a sweep of the season series with the Big Red.

Legree had given Ohio Wesleyan a 1-0 lead in the opening minutes of the game. Junior attacker Abbey Kelley (West Bloomfield, Mich./Mercy) sent the ball ahead to Legree, who finished off the chance just 5:06 into the game.

[ Katie Jones ]Denison unleashed a barrage of shots at the Ohio Wesleyan cage during the first half, peppering Bishop keeper Katie Jones (Pine Plains, N.Y./Stissing Mountain) with 11 shots during the period. Jones and the Bishop defense preserved the lead for a while and nearly emerged from the period with the margin intact, but Denison's Read Powel finally snuck the ball into the cage to tie the game at 1-1 with 3:16 left in the first half. During the first half, Denison outshot Ohio Wesleyan, 11-3.

The second half was an entirely different story, as it was Ohio Wesleyan that racked up a lopsided margin in shots. The Bishops outshot the Big Red, 9-1, during the period, but Denison keeper Laura Cunningham had 3 saves during the half and maintained the tie score.

The teams battled through one scoreless 15-minute overtime period, with each team getting off 3 shots. Jones made 2 saves during the first overtime to keep the game going. Then, less than a minute into the second extra session, Legree's successful shot ended the contest.

Jones finished with 7 shots in the Ohio Wesleyan goal, while Cunningham had 3 saves for Denison.

Ohio Wesleyan outshot Denison, 16-15.
