Saints Felled 1-0 by Late Saint Joseph's Goal in Double OT

Saint Joseph's Mark Manda hit a rocket of a shot into the Maryville next with just under four minutes remaining in the second overtime as the Pumas pulled out a 1-0 thriller in Great Lakes Valley Conference Sunday afternoon. The game was the second straight double OT contest for the Saints after they had a scoreless draw against Indianapolis Friday.
 
Both teams had solid scoring chances in the first half but the game remained scoreless after 45 minutes. Early in the second half, Nate Alonzo had a shot that hit the left goal post but bounced away. Later, Erik Schafer took a shot that appeared it might sneak into the left side of the net but the SJC defense blocked the ball at the last second.
 
In the first overtime, Schafer again had a shot on goal stopped by SJC keeper Adam Whybrow, and Alex Brown also nearly ended the game with a blast that was deflected by the Puma defense. In the second OT session, Brown again had a good chance to win it for the Saints but his attempt was blocked. However, in the 107th minute,  Manda collected a pass from Sebastian Quinteros and hit a hard volley that curled into the Saints net for the game-winning goal.
 
Christian Kjaersgaard came up with four saves, while Whybrow made six saves for SJC (3-2, 2-2 GLVC) in posting the shutout. Maryville slips to 2-4-1 overall, 0-3-1 in the league.
