Albany, N.Y. ? Freshman striker Teresa Boring scored her sixth and seventh goals of the season to pace UAlbany to a 2-2 draw with crosstown-rival Siena on Wednesday, Sept. 26 at Varsity Field. Boring has tallied the Great Danes' last six goals.
Boring would get UAlbany (3-3-3) on the scoreboard in the 32nd minute when she collected a loose ball just beyond the penalty spot and beat Saints keeper Patti Carroll to the far post for the 1-0 lead. Siena would even the score with 5:07 to play in the first half courtesy of a Deonna Gould tap-in from an Arielle Brazer cross.
The Saints would take a 2-1 lead with just under eight minutes elapsed in the second half when Tabitha Tice chipped a shot over UAlbany's Maria Liguori from 15 yards out. Boring and the Great Danes would retaliate, tying the game at 2-2 with 14:55 to play. Uju Ogbuawa sent a free kick into the penalty area where Ashley Tirabassi kept the play alive by heading the ball across the box to Boring who converted on the five-yard shot.
Siena (3-4-1) controlled the first overtime stanza, with Tice getting the perfect set-up to earn the Saints the win in the 98th minute when she took a shot all alone from 10 yards out and hit the crossbar. Tice would get another shot at the game-winner just a minute later but missed a one-on-one with Liguori wide left.
The best opportunity in the final 10 minutes for UAlbany came with 1:25 remaining when Boring freed herself at the top right side of the box, but could not get off a clean shot.
Carroll finished the game with five saves, while Liguori stopped a season-high 12 shots. The Saints had a 27-11 advantage in shots and had a 5-2 edge in corner kicks.
UAlbany will open up the America East Conference portion of its schedule on Sunday, Sept. 30, when they host Maine at 12 noon.
