Heckman Nets Overtime Winner, Eagles Top Huskies
April 01, 2021 | Women's Soccer
NEWTON, Mass. – Alison Heckman scored in the 109th minute to lift the Boston College women's soccer team to a 1-0 overtime victory over Northeastern on Thursday night at the Newton Campus Soccer Field. Zoie Allen registered her first collegiate point with an assist on Heckman's winning goal.
BC carried the play in the early going – and outshot Northeastern in the first and second half – but after a scoreless 90 minutes of regulation, the Huskies and Eagles headed to overtime. The Eagles kept pushing for the winner and eventually found it with Allen lofting a ball to Heckman in the final minutes of extra time.
