HOUGHTON, NY – Just under six minutes into the overtime period, with the score tied, 2-2, Houghton's Jace Hunzinger collected a rebounded shot from Elzandie Du Plessis off the Keuka goalie's shin pads at the top of the circle, faked a shot and sent firm pass to Cedar Smith at the near post, who slammed the game-winning goal into the back of the cage.
 
The Highlanders jumped out to a 2-0 lead off a pair of Bekah Davie goals, but the Wolves battled back, scoring in the 29^th and 36^th minutes to tie the game.
 
For the next 30 minutes the game would remain tied, until Smith's goal, her first of the year, buoyed Houghton to their fourth consecutive victory.
