FREDERICKSBURG, Va. - The Salisbury University women's soccer team recorded a 1-1 double overtime tie with the University of Mary Washington on Saturday afternoon in a Capital Athletic Conference contest before a crowd of 200.

Salisbury freshman Sarah Jessilonis recorded the only goal for the Sea Gulls (4-3-4, 2-0-2 CAC) late in the first half. Jessilonis, the reigning CAC Player of the Week, scored her second goal of the season 40 minutes into the game against the Eagles. Jessilonis scored the game-winner last week for the maroon and gold against defending CAC champion York (Pa.) College in overtime.

Mary Washington (5-3-4, 3-1-2 CAC) was able to knot the game at one with less than five minutes to play when Kim Pernice scored an unassisted goal. With the score tied at the end of regulation the teams proceeded to overtime. Neither team was able to capitalize in the two overtime periods as each team recorded their fourth tie of the season.

In the past eight games for SU the Sea Gulls have four ties to their credit. The four tied games match Salisbury's school record for ties in a season set in 2004. The two conference ties are the most since 2000 for the maroon and gold.

Salisbury outshot Mary Washington 11-6 as the Sea Gulls placed eight shots on goal, one in the overtime period. The Sea Gull defense limited the Eagles to two shots on goal. SU held a slight advantage in corner kicks, 3-2.

SU goalie Gena Goodson made one save in 110 minutes of play as she has 47 saves this season. Eagle goalie Laura McCarthy recorded seven saves in the loss.

Salisbury will remain on the road as the Sea Gulls travel to Pomona, N.J., on Wednesday, October 8, for a non-conference 6 p.m. game against the Richard Stockton College of New Jersey.
