Women
Eastern 14, Westminster 13
Meghan Kosmides had a day with a pair of milestones, but Eastern needed some 11th hour heroics to rally from a late deficit and earn a home win. Alison Andres scored the game winner off a feed from Caitlyn Quizon with .6 seconds to play.
The Titans (1-6) rallied with five-straight goals over an 11-minute stretch to grab a 13-12 lead with three minutes on the clock. The Titans, at that point, held an 8-7 edge in second-half draw controls. Kosmides collected the next draw, her tenth of the game to give the Eagles a huge possession. Kosmides scored her 100th career goal early in the game and shortly after became Eastern’s career lead in draw controls. Just three games into her third and final season, Kosmides is poised to put that number well beyond the previous mark of 221. She now has 227 draw controls in her career. Julie Haggan ’18 held the record.
With the possession, the Eagles settled into an offensive set. Sabrina Campbell took a flip from Kosmides outside the fan and beat her mark to a spot for a right-handed shot. The senior midfielder fired strong shot to to the low corner for her second tally of the year and a 13-13 tie.
Kosmides pulled the ensuing draw, but it was Andres that came out with the loose ball. The Eagles took a timeout, but there was still over 40 seconds difference between the game clock and the possession clock. That changed when Quizon drove to goal and fired a shot. The rookie attack had her shot stopped, but she dug out the rebound for a new 90 seconds. With the new clock, the Eagles could hold the ball for the final shot.
Stephanie Arnold drove at goal with 20 seconds left, but her shot went wide. Quizon then earned a free position attempt from goal line extended with 12 seconds to play. Rather than shoot from a bad angle, Quizon worked up toward the top of the fan and drew a double-team. Andres slid into the space in front of the goal and turned and fired to beat the clock for the win.
The game had big runs for both teams. The Eagles (2-1) gave up the first goal of the game and then scored six in a row to lead 6-1 with 11 minutes left int he first half. Kosmides scored the first two goals of the game on free position shots to hit the century mark for her career. Andrea Collesidis holds the Eastern career record with 342. Mackenzie Dix scored twice in the run and Quizon and Molly Dowling (Interboro) also added goals in the burst.
