WASHINGTON, D.C. - Time was running out on the Gallaudet University women's soccer team on Saturday evening at a wet and windy Hotchkiss Field against Lincoln (Pa.) University. The Bison trailed by a goal with six minutes left but that is when things swung around in Gallaudet's favor on Homecoming Weekend.

Gallaudet (6-11-1) scored two goals in the final minutes, including a dramatic game-winner with 40 seconds left, to come-from-behind to win 3-2. The Bison trailed the Lions 2-0 for the majority of the game. This is the second comeback win for the Bison this season as GU beat Washington Adventist University by the same score back on October 11.

Freshman midfielder Johanna Arrigo (Ewing, N.J.) scored the game-winning goal as she dribbled past and spun around Lion defender Collene Cumberbatch and was left 1-on-1 with Lincoln goalie Brittany Johnson (four saves). Arrigo netted her sixth goal of the season when she kicked the ball to the right of Johnson and into the back of the net. The goal set off a wild celebration on the field and the sideline for the Bison.

Gallaudet tied the game at 2-2 when the Bison were awarded a free kick, after a Lion foul, and created a scoring opportunity in front of the Lincoln goal. Junior forward Virginia Keeler (Ann Arbor, Mich.) took the kick and lofted the ball to the center of the Lion goal. Freshman Shaquana McDonough (Pembroke, Mass.) got a foot on the ball and passed it to freshman Maggie Hoyt (Norway, Maine) who scored her first collegiate goal with 6:12 left in the game.

McDonough scored the first of three unanswered goals by the Bison in the 62nd minute on a fast break when she beat the Lion defense and shot the ball into the left corner of the net. The goal was McDonough's 10th of the season.

The Bison dug themselves an early hole as Lincoln netted two goals. Gallaudet goalie Kara Gulvas (Crown Point, Ind.) had a failed clear attempt when she kicked the ball off a Lincoln player in the goalie box. The loose ball was then booted home by a wide-open Antonia Davis for the first score, just over nine minutes in. The Lions added a second goal in the 33rd minute as Stephanie Anderson netted her 13th goal of the season with a shot past Gulvas (six saves).

The two teams played a balance game as Gallaudet held a slight edge in shots, 18-16, and took 14 corner kicks to the Lions' four.

Gallaudet is one win away from tying the school record for wins in a season (seven) with one game left. The Bison will host Marymount (Va.) University on Thursday, October 29, with the opportunity to achieve that goal plus win a Capital Athletic Conference game for the first time since 2002. The game is slated to begin at 7:30 p.m. at Hotchkiss Field.
