THE LEADERS
•
Bella Bonazinga (Spring Lake, N.J./Wall) scored the Bullets' goal, converting a penalty corner.
FOR THE FOES
• Callie Cho notched the game-winner for the Garnet, converting a penalty corner just 1:54 into overtime.
THE REST OF THE STORY

• Off a corner with fewer than three minutes to play, the ball was played to
Jenna Vadinsky (Bridgewater, N.J./Bridgewater-Raritan) on the right-side wing. She sent the ball toward the cage and
Bella Bonazinga was able to get a stick on it to tie the game.
• The only corner of the extra period resulted in the game-winner when Callie Cho was waiting on the far post to finish a Findley pass.
