Gehret scores winner as Lock Haven rallies past Pitt-Johnstown

Bald Eagles erase one-goal halftime deficit to complete the season sweep of Pitt-Johnstown

JOHNSTOWN, Pa. – Lock Haven (7-5-2, 6-4-2 PSAC) scored twice in less than seven minutes in the second half to erase a halftime deficit and beat Pitt-Johnstown (1-11-2, 0-9-2 PSAC), 2-1, on Wednesday afternoon in Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) women's soccer action.

Junior forward Bryn Constanzer assisted on both goals. Freshman midfielder Riley Egresits tied it at 63:54 for her first goal of the season, and sophomore Brooke Gehret scored the game-winner in the 71st minute.

The Mountain Cats had the game's early pressure. Madelyn Pfaff scored at 17:38 off a Kaitlyn Pavusek assist, and Pitt-Johnstown took 12 shots in the first half to take a 1-0 lead into the locker room.

Lock Haven picked up its offense in the second half. Constanzer, who was substituted out late in the first half, returned at the start of the second and set up both goals. Egresits had been in the game for about a minute when she finished off Constanzer's pass to level it. Gehret, who had just returned to the field, followed with the winner less than seven minutes later.

Senior goalkeeper Riley Houck made it stand. She finished with a season-high seven saves, including four in the second half. The Lock Haven senior stopped Pfaff and Maddie Barrick in the 66th and 68th minutes, and turned away Morgan Ferris in the 87th minute as the Mountain Cats pushed for an equalizer.

The Bald Eagles managed only six shots on goal themselves. Colleen Lloyd had two of them. Pitt-Johnstown goalkeeper Gianna Cardillo made three saves in the loss.
