As Clear as a Bell

Lauren Bell scores in overtime to solidify epic comeback

Lauren Bell scored 44 seconds into overtime as Duquesne (5-4-1, 1-1-1 A-10) battled back from a 2-0 deficit to defeat La Salle (6-3-1, 1-2-0 A-10) on Thursday night.

HOW IT HAPPENED

  • Deena DeBaldo got the Dukes on the board 35 seconds later when she found the back of the net from 25 yards out
  • Abby Losco got the equalizer in the 79' on a score from 35 yards away, assisted by Alex Saturni and DeBaldo
  • Hannah Nguyen's header found the left foot of Bell, who placed the ball snugly in the right lower corner of the net for the game-winner
  • The Dukes defense held the Explorers to five shots
  • Duquesne fired 21 shots at LAS keeper Claudia Jenkins
  • DeBaldo had a career-high six shots
  • The Dukes remain undefeated at home this season 5-0-1
  • Duquesne has won four of the last six matches against La Salle
DUQUESNE HEAD COACH AL ALVINE
"Obviously we are thrilled to get our first three points of conference season. The team showed a lot of character and a lot of resilience to come back from two down in the second half to get the goals that we needed and to score the game-winner in overtime. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come. We struggled to score goals over the last couple of games, so get three goals tonight is a real treat."
