ITHACA, N.Y. – Dartmouth closed the book on the 2018 campaign in the most exciting way they could have, with a double overtime game-winning goal to take down Cornell, 2-1, Saturday afternoon on Berman Field in Ithaca, New York. Junior Hayley Soriano scored the equalizer late in regulation and freshman Izzy Glennon secured the game winner.

Dartmouth (10-5-2, 4-2-1 Ivy) outshot Cornell (1-13-1, 0-7-0 Ivy) 27-4 and 12-2 on goal. The Big Green held a wide margin in corner kicks with an 11-3 advantage. With the victory, Dartmouth reached double-digit wins in a season for the first time since 2012. The Big Green finished third in the Ivy League which is their best finish in the conference since 2014.

"One of the toughest things to do late in the season is to come back from deficits," said head coach Ron Rainey. "This reflects the character of the team to do it two games in a row. I am really proud of the class of 2019 and this year's team for how they played this season."

Dartmouth began the game on the attack with four shots and two corner kicks over the first 25 minutes. Cornell scored on its first shot of the match in the 27th minute to take a 1-0 lead. The Big Green outshot the Big Red 5-2 for the remainder of the half but could not even the score before halftime.

It was only a matter of time before Dartmouth would tie the match. On the 12th unanswered shot of the second half in the 89th minute, Remy Borisnky sent a cross from the right side to Soriano who kicked it past the keeper to make it 1-1 to send the match to overtime.

After a scoreless first overtime where Dartmouth outshot Cornell 5-0, Glennon propelled the Big Green to their 10th win of the season and closed the year strong for the Green and White.

The win marks the final game for seniors Remy Borinsky, Chloe Conacher, Jaclyn Engel, Sally Sandoval, Lauren Lucas and Ellen Pattinson.
