Pomona, NJ (10/29/05) - The Montclair State women's soccer season drew to a close on Saturday as the Red Hawks were ousted from the NJAC Tournament. Fifth-seeded MSU and No. 4 seed Richard Stockton played to a 1-1 tie, but it was the Osprey's advancing by virtue of penalty kicks, 3-2.

JESS AMENDOLA scored for the Red Hawks, who finish the year at 7-8-4. Rachel Friel had given Richard Stockton a 1-0 lead at the 38:51 mark and the game would remain scoreless until 8:09 left in regulation as Amendola collected her fourth goal in her last three matches and 10th this season.

The goal was the 25th of Amendola's career and gave her 61 career points, which ranks her sxith on the all-time MSU scoring list. Amendola is also seventh in goals scored.

The game headed into overtime, a common occurance for the two squads, who have played nine extra-session contests, including three which have been decided on penalty kicks. In the last 10 meetings, the teams have two victories with six ties. The only non-overtime game game in 2002 when MSU won 1-0 at Richard Stockton on an own goal.

Unlike last season when MSU defeated Richard Stockton, 7-6 in kicks en route to the NJAC title, this time the Ospreys got the winning margin as Allysa Bollaci made the game-ending penalty kick.

Alex Rogers made seven saves for the Ospreys while KRISTIN KUHMANN had two stops.

Montclair State outshot RIchard Stockton, 15-9.
