NOTRE DAME SOCCER DROPS THRILLER IN DOUBLE OVERTIME TO ST. DOMINIC

OFALLON -- Notre Dame hit the crossbar three times, but was unable to net a goal Tuesday in a thrilling 1-0 double-overtime loss to St. Dominic in the semifinals of the St. Dominic Soccer Tournament.

Although Notre Dame (16-4-1) had the better scoring opportunities in regulation, St. Dominic netted the game's lone goal four minutes into the second overtime.

"We easily could have won three or four to nothing," said Notre Dame coach Brad Wittenborn. "We played really well for 60 minutes but I think we ran out of gas."

Notre Dame will play the winner of today's Clayton/Washington game Friday at 5 p.m. in the third-place game.

"I was very pleased with the way we played," said Wittenborn. "I couldn't have asked for a better effort."
