Madonna (in yellow) defeated Aquinas (in red) 2-1 in double overtime! The game was played last Friday in Livonia! |
Aquinas College came into Friday's contest with a 10-1 overall record, but don't tell that to the Madonna Crusaders who hosted, and defeated Aquinas in double overtime (2-1) to improve their overall record to 5-5, with a 3-2 record in the WHAC (Wolverine-Hoosier Athletic Conference). Aquinas College dropped to 2-2 in the WHAC, with an overall record of 10-2.
There was no score after the first period of play, and mid-way through the second half, the game was still scoreless. Aquinas College was awarded a penalty kick, and Michael Gagnon converted the attempt to open up the scoring book. Madonna's Brandon Hess tied the game with twelve minutes left in regulation, and the contest remained 1-1, until Nick Peper scored the winning goal for Madonna with just 41 seconds left in double overtime. Each overtime period consisted of ten minutes.
