Senior Gary Newson came off the bench to score one of the most exciting goals in Gannon history last Wednesday as his waist-high shot from 15 yards out found the back of the net, giving the Golden Knights a 1-0 victory against No. 21 Slippery Rock in double overtime. Newson’s game-winning goal came with just three minutes remaining in the second overtime period, preventing the scoreless tie. Gannon is ranked third in the latest NCAA Division II Atlantic regional rankings. Slippery Rock is tabbed second. Newson’s goal was his second in as many matches after scoring his first career goal against Davis & Elkins. It was his first career game-winning goal. Gannon finished the week 1-1, earning the win against Slippery Rock and falling 2-1 at Lock Haven. Gannon is now 11-3 this season and 4-2 in PSAC matches.
