Still Dancing! Soccer Stuns Catawba In Double Overtime

COLUMBUS, Ga. — After 105 scoreless minutes, fifth-seeded UNC Pembroke struck for the golden-goal winner in the 106th to take a 1-0 win over fourth-seeded Catawba in NCAA Southeast Regional action Friday morning.

Hailey Jones ended the match on the assist from Willow Price, while Addison Ellsworth matched her career-high with 10 saves to log her 18th career clean sheet.

The Braves (13-2-5) improved to 4-7-0 all-time against the Indians (13-6-2), while also snapping Catawba's four-match winning streak in the series. Nearly 16 years to the day, the victory marked the program's first NCAA Tournament win since beating Pfeiffer 3-0 on November 12, 2010.

The Braves will be back in action Sunday, November 15 as they face top-seeded Columbus State. Kickoff is set for 1 p.m. at Walden Soccer Complex.
