OXFORD, Ohio – In a back-and-forth contest on Friday at the Miami Field Hockey Complex, the App State Mountaineers (14-5, 6-1 MAC) fell 3-2 on a sudden death goal by Emma Rolston in overtime against the Kent State Golden Flashes (8-10, 5-2 MAC). After fighting to tie the score in the 52nd minute, the Mountaineers’ historic season came to a heartbreaking end on Friday.
The Mountaineers trailed at the halftime break by two goals, then fought all the way back, scoring twice in the second half to tie things up and send the game to overtime for the second time this season against Kent State. Charlotte Bosma netted the equalizer with eight minutes to play in the fourth quarter, her seventh goal of the season.
The Mountaineers saw their nine-game winning streak come to an end but it was a historic streak, nonetheless. The nine wins in a row is the third-longest streak in program history. The 14 wins on the season was tied for the most wins in program history with Emily Dinsmore breaking Dr. Jan Watson’s record for wins by an App State first-year head coach.
