WEST O'AHU, HAWAII (9/10/2012) -- The University of Detroit Mercy women's soccer team played in its third-straight overtime game and fell to the University of Hawaii 2-1 on Monday morning at the Waipi'o Peninsula Soccer Stadium (WPSS). The loss concluded the Titans two-game swing in the Aloha State for the
Outrigger Hotels and Resorts Soccer Classic.
The game was played at 5:00 p.m. on Sunday in Hawaii, but with the six hour time difference, the start time in Michigan was at 11:00 p.m Sunday evening in the Eastern Daylight Time zone.
After a scoreless first half, Detroit (2-4-1) came out with the first goal of the game at the 50:45 mark as newcomer
Haley Burtraw netted her second goal of the season.
Alyssa Riley took a hard shot from inside the 18-yard box that hit the crossbar and Burtraw gathered the rebound and put it into the net giving the Titans a 1-0 lead.
A goal from Hawaii (5-1-2) in the 80th minute eventually forced the overtime period, while a goal at 91:36 ended the game and marked the second time in three games that UDM has fallen in extra time. The Titans played to a 1-1 draw against Ball State in the team's other game in Hawaii a day earlier and fell to Oakland 3-2 on Aug. 31 in Rochester Hills.
Following the tournament, three Titans were named to the All-Tournament team as
Sarah Dzuris,
