GENEVA, N.Y. -- Senior Colleen Fluck (Cicero-North Syracuse/North Syracuse) scored off a pass from junior Sue Hollister (West Genesee HS/Syracuse, NY) with 53 seconds left in the second overtime Thursday to lift Nazareth College to a 13-12 overtime upset win over eight-ranked William Smith in the opening round of the NCAA Division III women's lacrosse tournament.

The victory was the first ever in NCAA tournament play for the Golden Flyers (ranked 19th nationally), who improved to 16-3 overall and will meet defending Division III champion Middlebury Sunday in the quarterfinals.

Fluck's goal came after Hollister had tied the score at 12-12 for the Golden Flyers with 19 seconds left in the first overtime. William Smith had gained a 12-11 advantage on a goal by Jackie Toner.

Nazareth led 7-6 at halftime as Maya Lambiase (Irondequoit HS/Rochester, NY) and Lorra Podsiadlo (Penn Yan, NY) each scored twice. The Golden Flyers appeared to be in control after expanding their lead to 11-7 on a goal by Sarah Burns (Cicero-North Syracuse HS/Cicero, NY) with 8:37 to play. The Herons (11-2) rallied to score the last four goals of regulation to force overtime, the last goal coming off the stick of Amanda Wynn with 2:20 left.

In the two three-minute overtimes, Nazareth fell behind, then rallied behind Hollister and Fluck. The Golden Flyers also were saved by the play of sophomore goalie Teryn Wineburg (Auburn, NY), who finished with a season-high 18 saves, including several brilliant stops in overtime.

Lambiase finished with four goals and one assist and now has 65 goals on the season. Hollister, Podsiadlo and Burns each had two goals.
