Lost 1-0 (double overtime) - Box Score
The College of New Jersey senior Coleen Weber scored a goal in the second overtime period to lead the Lions past Moravian, 1-0, in the NCAA Division III first round at Skidmore College’s Wachenheim Field.

Weber’s goal broke a scoreless game 1:23 into the second overtime period. After a cross from the right flank, senior Jamie Kunkel, with her back to the goal, handled the ball and laid it off to Weber, who was in full-stride and gunned to the bottom right corner of the net to give the Lions the win.
The hard-fought contest was not without chances for the Greyhounds. In the second half, Moravian freshman midfielder Kim Gogel took a shot from the left side of the box that grazed the crossbar and bounced back across the field and was cleared by a Lions defender at 83:32.
In a solid outing for both goalkeepers, junior Jessica Clarke recorded six saves for the Lions in the win. Moravian senior keeper Caitlin Corrigan finished with five saves to complete her career with 317 saves, third in school history. The goal allowed by Moravian was its first in just over 421 minutes.

Vs. The Catholic University of America in Landmark Conference Championship
Won 1-0 (double overtime) - Box Score
Freshman forward Arielle Caldas netted the golden goal in the 108th minute to lift top seeded Moravian to a 1-0, double-overtime victory over second seed The Catholic University of America in the 2008 Landmark Conference Championship match on the HUB Quad.
The conference title is the first-ever for the Greyhounds, and it was also the first time in three trips to the conference championship match that Moravian had played at home. The Greyhounds extended their unbeaten streak to 7-0-2, and Moravian is now 2-1-2 in double overtime this fall. Moravian will find out Sunday night if it has received one of the three Pool B berths to the NCAA Division III National Championship Tournament for the second straight year. The Greyhounds, 14-5-2 overall after the win, are part of Pool B since the Landmark Conference will not receive an automatic berth until 2009.
Caldas collected the ball on the offensive side of midfield and dribbled down the left side of the pitch. As she reached the 18-yard box, Caldas cut back towards the middle of the field as the Catholic defender slipped on the wet surface. Caldas then ripped a 12-yard shot under Catholic junior goalie Tere Rossi and into the back right corner of the net for her 11th goal of the season and her fifth game-winning goal.
Catholic had a 25-15 advantage in shots with the Cardinals up 21-11 in shots after regulation. Catholic also had an 11-2 edge in corner kicks. Moravian senior goalie Caitlin Corrigan made seven saves for her eighth shutout of the season. Corrigan also picked up her 51st career win and 34th career shutout which are both Moravian records, and she moved into third in career saves, now with 312. Rossi had four stops for Catholic.
Both teams had scoring chances throughout the match. Catholic had two scoring chances with Corrigan making a good save on a shot by sophomore forward Kelly Donnely in the 33rd minute. Rossi stopped Moravian senior forward Tracy Fitzpatrick in the 41st minute on a breakaway.
Late in the second half, both teams would have opportunities again. The Cardinals got off six shots in the final six minutes with Corrigan making one save and shot by Catholic freshman midfielder Caitlin Brett hitting the left post. Fitzpatrick broke in again one-on-one on Rossi with just under a minute to play in regulation before chipping a shot wide to the right.
Fitzpatrick had another shot early in the first overtime. However, the best scoring chance of the first extra session went to Catholic. Donnely attempted to head a shot in from the right side but Corrigan fully extended to just tap the shot over the cross bar and onto the top of the net for a corner kick.
In the second overtime, Catholic had two shots blocked before they reached the net then Rossi made a save on a Fitzpatrick header in the 104th minute. In the 106th minute, Moravian junior forward Alessandra Valdetara came down the right side of the box and ripped a shot that bounced off of the cross bar to allow Catholic to attack the other way. With the ball bouncing around, Caldas would gain possession and head on her game-winning break.

Moravian gave Corrigan all of the offense she needed in the 16th minute.
