Worcester, Mass. (October 13) -- The Assumption College women's soccer team dropped a 2-1 final in double-overtime to Bentley University at the Multi-Sport Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Bentley forward Laura Muise converted a penalty kick in the 103rd minute for the deciding goal.

Assumption College got on the board first as Andrea Bates (Holden, Mass./Wachusett) found the back of the net for her sixth goal of the season off a helper by senior Caitlin Sewall (Portsmouth, R.I./Portsmouth) in the 34th minute.

Bentley evened the score in the 43rd minute as Caroline Fitzgerald put the Falcons on the board off a rebound shot. The teams went into the half tied at one.

The teams played to a scoreless second half, sending the game to overtime. After a scoreless first overtime period, the Falcons got a chance three minutes into the second overtime. Assumption keeper Allison Bruder (Sandy, Utah/Juan Diego Catholic) came out to play a ball on the right side of the box and slid into Muise.

The referees awarded Muise a penalty kick on the play and the senior converted, giving Bentley a 2-1 win.

Bruder made five saves in the loss, as Assumption falls to 3-7-2 overall and 3-5-3 in Northeast-10 Conference play. Bentley improves to 5-6-2 overall and 3-6-2 in Northeast-10 Conference action.
