    Pincock's Overtime Goal Lifts
    IUP Past Millersville



    
    IUP remained in the hunt for a berth in the Pennsylvania 
    State Athletic Conference playoffs, downing Millersville 
    by a score of 2-1 in overtime Wednesday afternoon.
    
    The Indians improved to 10-9 overall and 8-7 in PSAC play.  
    IUP will earn a spot in the playoffs with a home win over 
    Slippery Rock on Saturday combined with a Lock Haven 
    victory over East Stroudsburg.
    
    Although the Indians dominated play, they needed a goal 
    by Amy Pincock with 2:24 remaining in the extra session 
    to pull out the victory.  IUP held a 20-3 edge in shots 
    and took 23 penalty corners compared to only five for 
    Millersville (2-16, 1-14 PSAC).
    
    After a scoreless first half, the Marauders jumped out to 
    a 1-0 lead when Sami Griffith scored with 3:39 expired 
    after intermission.  Twenty minutes later, IUP tied it up 
    when Chrissy Hill scored off an assist by Wendy Strohl.
    
    Pincock, who earlier was thwarted on a penalty shot by 
    Jada Wolfe, beat the Millersville keeper on a breakaway 
    12-footer in front of the cage to give the Indians the 
    victory.
    
    Jamie Parell was forced to make only two saves in goal for 
    IUP while Wolfe stopped 11 IUP scoring opportunites.
    
    The Senior Day game against Slippery Rock on Saturday at 
    Miller Stadium gets under way at 1:00.
