Tech started attacking the goal right when the clock started taking the first eight shots of the game, including a corner kick from freshman Kelsey Loupee a minute into the half. The Huskers would eventually take two shots before Conheeney put the first point on the board with a header off a cross ball from Kelsey Mitchell to give the Hokies the 1-0 lead. Nebraska fired right back with a sneaky shot from Jordan Jackson 35 yards back that went over keeper Anna Romeiser’s head and landed into the goal in the 33rd minute. The two teams went into the break tied 1-1. Tech started the second period right were it left off, taking the next two shots and a corner before Jazmine Reeves dished a quick ball to Manning and Manning fired it over to Lumpkin where she found the back of the net from 12 yards back at the 51:59 mark to put the Hokies up, 2-1. After Tech took two more corner kicks, Manning recorded her first goal of the season when Reeves fired a ball across the box and Manning ran in to tap the ball into the net to give the Hokies a two-point advantage in the 63rd minute. The Huskers did not give up, as Jackson connected on a shot from the right side of the box from 12 yards back to close on the Hokie lead at the 78:51 mark. Seven minutes later, Morgan Marlborough dribbled down the field and fired a shot from the top of the box 20 yards back passed the hands of Romeiser to tie the game at three in the 82nd minute. Nebraska out shot the Hokies six to four in the first overtime, but neither team could find the back of the net. Double-overtime lasted about three minutes when Jackson shot a ball that bounced off the crossbar and Stacy Bartels ran in and dished it in to end the game. The Hokies out shot Nebraska 25-18 and took eight corner kicks, while limiting the Huskers to just one the entire game. Dayle Colpitts started the game for Tech, but left 28 minutes in due to injury.

Sept. 11, 2011 Tech closes Hilton Garden Hokie Invitational with a 3-0 win over Loyola BLACKSBURG, Va. – The Virginia Tech women’s soccer team closed out the Hilton Garden Invitational with a 3-0 victory over the Loyola Greyhounds Sunday afternoon on Thompson Field. Brittany Michels, Katie Cramp and Kelly Conheeney each connected on one goal each for the Hokies. Tech (7-1-0) set the tone for the game early in the first half as it dominated the Grey- hounds (1-7-0) offensively and kept control of possession the entire half. Brittany Michels was very active on corner kicks as the Hokies tallied seven in the half, but she was unable to get a hold of anything. Later in the half Katie Yensen received the ball up the field and fired a shot at the goal, but Loyola’s keeper Didi Haracic came up with a big save. Tech nearly had another op- portunity when Brittany Popko fired a header at the net but a Loyola defender was perfectly positioned at the post to deflect the ball away. Towards the end of the half, Shannon Mayrose laid out as she dove at a ball in front of the goal and headed it in attempt to score but Haracic was there again for another big save. Tech took the shooting edge in the first half 14-1, while it was a true team effort from the Greyhounds in the first half as they recorded three team saves. The hard work finally paid off for Michels in front of the net as she was able to get a hold of a Kelsey Loupee corner kick and head it into the back of the net in the 49th minute. On a broken play that saw the ball get served into the box, Kelly Conheeney got a hold of the loose ball in the box and brought it out a few steps to get a better look at the net. Despite the readjustment, Haracic stopped the attempt. Remaining persistent, Conheeney continued to attack through the second half and eventually put the Hokies up 2-0 in the 67th minute. After Jazmine Reeves was taken down just inches outside the 18-yard box, Tech was awarded a free kick that was lifted over the Loyola wall and soared over the keeper’s hands into the back of the net. Tech tacked on another goal at the 78:14 mark when Anne Lumpkin served in a long ball from the right sideline that Katie Cramp was able to get a head on as she rose above the crowd and redirected the ball into the top left side of the net. Anna Romeiser got the start in goal for the Hokies, who played nearly every player that dressed, and played the full 90 minutes and stopping Loyola’s only shot. Haracic also lasted the full 90 minutes and made 12 of the team’s 15 saves.

VT: 25 Sh., 18 SOG., 3 G., 2 A. -- Romeiser: 90:00 mins., 0 GA., 1 Sv. LOY: 1 Sh., 1 SOG., 0 G., 0 A. -- Haracic: 90:00 mins., 3 GA., 12 Sv.
