Middlebury’s pursuit of a perfect season will go down to the final day.<\/p>\n

The Panthers improved to 26-0 with a 3-2 victory against Elmira on Friday in an NCAA Division III women’s semifinal in Middlebury, Vt.<\/p>\n

Kyle Quinlan’s second-period goal put Middlebury ahead for good. Madie Leidt made it 3-1 in the third period before Elmira’s Holley Riva scored to cut the lead to one.<\/p>\n

Sophia Merageas made 16 saves for the Panthers. Leonie Kuehberger stopped 29 shots for the Soaring Eagles (25-3-1), who had a winning streak end at 15 games.<\/p>\n

Gustavus Adolphus 5, Plattsburgh 1<\/h4>\n

The Golden Gusties advanced to their first NCAA championship game thanks to a goal and two assists each from Kristina Press and Hailey Holland.<\/p>\n

Plattsburgh went ahead 1-0 on a goal by Emma Killeen 81 seconds into the game but Molly McHugh and Holland answered later in the opening period for Gustavus (25-3-2).<\/p>\n

“A lot of alumni have paved the way for the girls,\u201d Gusties coach Mike Carroll said. “Our coaches did a good job and the girls hung with it and I couldn\u2019t be happier for our school. We’re really looking forward to tomorrow.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
