LAWRENCEVILLE, New Jersey – Senior forward Victoria Colatosti scored her first goal of the season to tie the game, but Rider scored in the 103rd minute during double overtime to carry the Broncs over Marist 2-1 on Wednesday evening in the Garden State.
 
The Red Foxes fall to 3-3-1 in MAAC play and 4-5-2 overall. Rider improves to 3-3-1 in the conference and 5-6-2 in 2021.
 
Every goal came after halftime. Hannah Freeman opened the scoring for the home team in the 53rd minute to put Rider ahead 1-0. However, sophomore midfielder Chance Hendricks fed Colatosti for the equalizer just 49 seconds later.
 
The score remained the same through the rest of the second half and the first overtime period. It wasn't until the 103rd minute that Chloe Fisher ended the game.
 
Colatosti led the Red Foxes with three shots, two of which were on goal. Senior goalkeeper Natalie Kelchner tallied eight saves in net.
 
Fisher's four shots were a game-high. Ellie Sciancalepore made five saves between the pipes.
