BOSTON, Mass. -- Rams sophomore Melissa Brouillette made a career-high 18 saves and junior Gabrielle Baestrier scored three minutes into the first overtime as the Suffolk University Women's Soccer team picked up their second Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) win of the season with a 1-0 battle over the Simmons College Sharks on Wednesday evening.

Senior Justine Beauchamp (Exeter, N.H.) led all players with 13 shots on the evening, including six scoring chances that were shot down by Brouillette. Desh Perera (Reading, Mass.) added five shots and Keri Acheson (Peabody, Mass.) was denied four shots on goal. Balestrier nearly scored a goal in the game's fifty-fourth minute but her shot bounced off the post.

In a four-minute span midway through the second half, Brouillette stopped three consecutive shots by Simmons and later made a pair of saves in the closing seconds as the Sharks swarmed the goal in the closing seconds of regulation. Senior Alma-Lynn Dupont (Bowling Green, Ohio) was denied a point-blank shot by defender Nicole Hunt to send the game into overtime.

Freshman Brianna Hayes (Manorville, N.Y.) was stellar in net for Simmons as she made five saves on the night in the loss. Simmons held the advantage in shots as they put out 36 shots compared to 11 by the Rams.

Suffolk will be back in action on Saturday afternoon as they travel to Newton to take on Lasell College in a rematch of last year's GNAC Tournament Finals. The Sharks host Rivier College on Saturday at 1:00 p.m. in another GNAC matchup.
