With 19.1 seconds left in the game, Old Dominion’s field hockey season met a swift end as the Liberty Flames 12-7 (6-1 Big East) netted in the empty-net goal to seal the 3-1 Big East championship victory. The Lady Monarchs 15-3 (6-1 Big East) rode into Sunday on a ten-game winning streak, but those winning ways would not go further and because of the defeat, they were not chosen to participate in the NCAA tournament.
Hours after the match, the ODU squad gathered in a room and watched the NCAA Tournament selection show where they would meet their fate.
