On the game-winner, senior Kearsten Sego lifted a center pass from the right side and, after Cara Armstrong's shot was blocked, Haney pushed a pass to the left side where Baquero slding shot found the right corner of the net.

The Penguins twice overcame a one-goal deficit in the second half to force overtime. After senior goalkeeper Jackie Podolsky was injured just 14 seconds into the first overtime, sophomore Katie Montgomery posted two critical saves to force a second extra period. Montgomery recorded her second victory of the season.

Ten minutes into the second half, Baquero centered a pass from the left wing into an open area in the Panthers' penalty box. Haney beat Milwaukee goalkeeper Paige Lincicum to the ball and forced a shot into the net to tie the match, 1-1, at the 55:52 mark.

Milwaukee answered when Krissy Dorre took a pass from Kelly Lewers and drove down the left of the box and ripped a tough shot into the right corner to put the Panthers up, 2-1, at the 68:03 mark.

Six minutes later, Hohmann lofted a cross from the right sideline toward the goal that bounced over Lincicum's outstretched arms and into the goal to tie the match for the second time, 2-2, at the 74:13 mark.
