Wilt Nets Golden Goal at Nevada

Box Score Jenna Wilt could not have picked a better time to notch her first collegiate goal.
 
Wilt struck with 35 seconds remaining in the first overtime to give Colorado College a 1-0 victory at the University of Nevada on Sunday afternoon.
 
CC's first-year defensive midfielder took a pass from Lauren Milliet and beat Wolfpack goalkeeper Lauryn Horstdaniel.
 
Wilt is the first Tiger to score an overtime game winner since Sarah Schweiss accomplished the feat in the 2-1 win over the University of Wyoming on Oct. 4, 2015, at Stewart Field.
 
It was the third time Milliet has set up a game-winning goal in less than three full seasons with the Tigers. The junior midfielder now is tied for the team lead with three assists this season.
 
Colorado College enjoyed a massive advantage in the run of play and put 14 of their 25 total shots on frame.
 
It was the most shots for CC since it launched 26 in a 2-0 win over Air Force on Oct. 31, 2014, and the most in a road game since recording 30 during a 4-3 win at Rice University on Oct. 17, 2013.
 
At the defensive end of the pitch, Colorado College allowed just five shots, only three of which were on target.
 
It was the fewest total shots allowed by CC since the 1-0 win over Wyoming in the first round of the 2015 Mountain West Championship in San Diego. It also was the fewest in a road game since holding Southern Miss to four in a 3-0 victory on Sept. 30, 2011.
 
The beneficiary of the defensive effort was freshman goalkeeper Jade Odom, who stopped all three she shots she faced while recording her third clean sheet of the season.
 
The Tigers improved to 4-5-3 overall and 1-2-1 in the Mountain West.
 
Horstdaniel made 13 saves for Nevada, which dropped to 1-11-0 overall and 0-4-0 in league play.
 
CC concludes its run of four consecutive road games next week at Utah State University and Boise State University on Friday and Sunday, respectively.
