West Canaan
Substitute Amelia Wilson stole a ball in the open field from a Mountaineers forward, dribbled in for a one-on-one chance against Julie Downs and drilled it past the goalie to the upper left corner with 3 minutes, 4 seconds left in the extra session.
Wilson, who normally plays midfield, was inserted in place of Mascoma’s leading scorer, Katie Ferland, in order to give the senior rest.
“Overtime is 7-on-7, so you’re subbing quickly to keep fresh legs,” said Mascoma coach Jenn Hammond, whose squad defeated the defending NHIAA Division III champion for the first time during her four-year tenure. “Amelia really did a great job on that play.”
It was a strong defensive effort for the Royals, who led 7-2 in shots.
Mascoma’s third straight win avenged last year’s regular-season loss to Berlin, also 1-0 in overtime in West Canaan.
Downs finished with six saves while the Royals’ Abby Duhaime made two.
