AIKEN, S.C. - The University of South Carolina Aiken women's soccer team earned a 4-3 overtime victory against Montevallo Saturday afternoon in a Peach Belt Conference affair.

The Pacers are now 6-5-2 overall, including a 4-2-1 mark against league foes.

Hannah Allison put head coach Sue Vodicka's team on top in the 13th minute of action. She took a pass from Megan Smits and booted it past the diving keeper for a 1-0 edge.

The two combined for the team's second goal less than two minutes later. Allison headed the ball straight to Smits, who hammered home the Pacers' second goal of the match.

The Falcons pulled within one in the 18th minute on a one-on-one, but neither squad could find the back of the net again before intermission. 

Vodicka's squad opened the scoring in the second period when Akeyla Furbert found Smits for the program's third goal at the 57:56 mark.

The Falcons soared back, cutting the deficit to one in the 69th minute and tied the match with just 72 seconds left in regulation. However, Vodicka inspired the team in the break prior to the overtime session. 

In the 93rd minute, Jenna Beauregard dribbled down the right side of the pitch. Despite being at a 45-degree angle from the goal, Beauregard ripped a shot across the frame from 25 yards out and connected with the game-winning score. 

For the match, Furbert and Smits each had four shots while Smits posted three shots on goal. 

USC Aiken out-shot the visitors 13-7 and earned seven corner kicks compared to six by the Falcons. Nicole Cranny played all 92:42 between the pipes in the win, stopping one shot on target. 

The Pacers return to action Oct. 22 when they travel to Armstrong State for a 3:30 p.m., match.
