CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — Elizabeth Warner's overtime goal won the game for No. 14 Boston College downed No. 12 Virginia, 1-0 at Turf Field.

During a scoreless first half, Margo Carlin led the way with two shots on goal. Warner, Fusine Govaert, and Milagros Arteta all had one shot on goal during the first half. Arteta made the only shot on goal for the Eagles in the second half as the Eagles and Cavaliers played 60 scoreless minutes.
