Hillburn, NY – (3/27/2010) – With 19 seconds remaining in this evening's Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) contest; sophomore midfielder Aubree Williams (Great Meadows, NJ) scored for Dominican College to steal a 13-12 win over Chestnut Hill College. Senior midfielder Carley Glass (Swedesboro, NJ) totaled five goals in the contest including her 100th career tally. She is the third Griffin to record the feat in the last two seasons.
Dominican College (1-5, 1-4) took a 2-0 lead 5:18 into the contest, but Glass located sophomore attack Kelly McKay (Perkasie, PA) and freshman attack Nicole Covella (Vineland, NJ) for goals to help Chestnut Hill College (1-3, 0-2) score four of the next five goals to grab a 4-3 advantage. The Chargers tied the game with 16:23 remaining in the half, but two goals from Glass put the Griffins back ahead 6-4 with 10:14 left in the period. Her second score made her the fourth Griffin to cross the 100 career-goal threshold. The celebration was short lived, however, as the Lady Chargers knotted the contest 8-8 by halftime.
