ROCHESTER, N.Y. – Danielle Wilkin scored at the 109:20 mark in double overtime to lift host Nazareth over the University of Rochester, 1-0 on Tuesday night.

With the win, Nazareth improves to 6-1-2 overall, while the Yellowjackets fall to 4-3-1 on the season.

Although being outshot 25-12 in the contest, Nazareth held tight on defense thanks to a career-high 16 saves from goalkeeper Allison Dobles, allowing Wilkin the opportunity to clinch the game in the double overtime.  Rachel Dise played a cross in from the left flank and Wilkin tapped it into the near post from just beyond the six yard box for the game-winner.

Nazareth generated some quality opportunities early in the first half, beginning with Michaela Soules launching a difficult header towards the goalkeeper  in the third minute.  The Golden Flyers created another dangerous chance off a corner kick in the 12^th minute.  Coming off of a short corner kick, Sarah Conroy registered a shot just over the crossbar.

In the second half, Nazareth generated its most dangerous chance in the 58^th minute as a Jessica Barden shot from outside the box went just wide of the far post.

Nazareth returns to action on Friday when it will travel to Utica College for a 5 p.m. contest.
