Beales’ OT Goal Earns Thrilling 2-1 Win at Brown

PROVIDENCE, R.I. – An overtime goal by sophomore forward Poppy Beales capped a back-and-forth battle between the Yale field hockey team and Brown Wednesday afternoon at Goldberger Family Field. Junior forward Lily Ramsey also scored for the Bulldogs, and senior goalkeeper Luanna Summer made four saves. 
 
Scoring Summary  
Notes
  • Senior goalkeeper Luanna Summer made four saves, perhaps none bigger than the one she made midway through the first quarter. On a breakaway for Bears midfielder Imogen Govan, she came charging out to deny the shot and keep the game scoreless.
  • The Bulldogs momentarily appeared to go up 1-0 on a penalty corner with four minutes left in the second quarter, but the shot by junior back Colette Staadecker was ruled to have come from outside the circle.
  • Summer also made a critical save with 8:30 left in the third during a Brown penalty corner, using her blocker to knock down a shot and then kicking the ball safely away.
  • Yale went ahead 1-0 less than three minutes into the fourth quarter. Junior forward Lily Ramsey dribbled in on the left side of the circle, backed down a Brown defender, spun and sent a shot towards the goal. It bounced past the outstretched right leg of Brown keeper Kylee Del Monte.
  • Brown tied it at 56:29 on a breakaway goal for Govan after a Yale turnover.
  • A defensive save by Brown's Julia Hitti on a Yale penalty corner with three minutes left in regulation denied a chance for first-year forward Emma Ramsey to win the game.
  • Video review overturned a potential Brown penalty corner in overtime, and another video review led to the first in a series of four Yale penalty corners that eventually led to the game-winner.
  • On the game-winner, Beales took the insert from junior forward/midfielder Julia Freedman and set herself up for a backhand. After missing on her initial attempt, Beales stayed with the play and fired the ball past Del Monte's right side for the 2-1 final.
  • Yale had a 9-0 advantage in penalty corners.
  • Yale's last five games have all been decided by one goal.
  • Yale has now beaten Brown six straight times, with the last two coming in overtime and four of the last five decided by one goal.
