The Spiders drew their seventh penalty corner of the match two minutes later, but Towson defended successfully. A few minutes later, sophomore forward Clara Larripa connected for another penalty corner, but the Spiders were once again left without a goal.
Towson had its own botched penalty corner to tie the score at 1-1 leading into the fourth period.
The Spiders drew the first penalty corner of the fourth period, but their attempt to score fell short. Moments later, the Spiders had three more penalty corners, but were unable to create a goal from any of them.
The Spiders drew their thirteenth penalty corner, which initially appeared successful, but the goal was declared void after review, leaving the match tied with seven minutes on the clock. Neither team was able to score in that period, sending the game into extra time.

The Spiders drew a penalty corner minutes later, which led to sophomore forward Valen Luna Paratore scoring a game-winning goal. This was the fourth overtime victory for the Spiders this season.
“I'm glad we won, but I'm not going to be complacent about it,” redshirt junior goalkeeper Kristen Rake said after the game. We want to beat teams with more than one lead in an overtime goal.
With this win, the Spiders take the lead 7-2 in their next game against La Salle University, a fellow Atlantic 10 team, at 5:00 PM on October 4 at Crenshaw Field. UR Head Coach Martu Loncarica left La Salle to coach UR this season, meaning she will compete against her former players on her new home court. The Spiders are currently 2-0 in their conference and will look to keep that momentum going.
