O'Donnell scores four goals as Navy avoids upset
Navy's Meg O'Donnell (Capital Gazette file photo) Sophmore attack Meg O'Donnell was the hero as Navy narrowly avoided an upset in the semifinals of the Patriot League Tournament.
O'Donnell scored four goals, including the game-winner with 3:21 to go, to lift second-seeded Navy to a thrilling 9-8 victory over No. 4 Lehigh on Friday night at Ridley Athletic Complex.
O'Donnell gave Navy only its second lead of the game when she scored from the crease with time winding down. O'Donnell took a pass in traffic from sophomore midfielder Andie O'Sullivan and somehow avoided stick checks from two defenders and shot the ball into the top corner.
