The Muhlenberg field hockey team overcame two deficits to win a wild 4-3 game in overtime at DeSales. 

Senior Erin DiSandro scored the winner with 4:44 left in overtime off a penalty corner. Her insertion went to senior Lily Botta on the near wing. Botta (pictured above) sent it back to DiSandro, who lifted it over the stick of a DeSales defender and over the right shoulder of the goalie for her first career overtime winner.

DiSandro's 28th career goal ended a game in which four of the six regulation goals were scored in a span of 3:35 in the third quarter.

The Mules (2-1) trailed 2-0 at halftime before tying the game on a pair of goals 36 seconds apart by senior Abba Diglio. On the first goal, she dribbled almost half the field through the Bulldog defense to score, and on the second she sprinted past the DeSales defense, taking a pass from sophomore Haley Foster and finishing as she fell down.

It was the third time in Diglio's career that she netted a pair of goals in a span of less than two minutes. The last time a Muhlenberg player scored twice in such a quick span was in 2000.

The Bulldogs (1-2), however, showed some quick strike ability of their own, going back in front 3-2 just 15 seconds after Diglio's second goal.

Less than three minutes later, though, sophomore Danielle Kapsak scored at the far post off a corner to bring the game even again.

After that flurry of goals, neither team scored in the fourth quarter, and the Mules went to overtime for the second time in three games this season. Junior Maddie Schwartz made three of her eight saves in quick succession midway through the fourth quarter and also stopped a shot in the first 15 seconds of overtime.

Muhlenberg hadn't overcome a two-goal halftime deficit to win a game since 1995 against Delaware Valley and hadn't overcome two separate deficits to win since 2018 against Washington College.
