Penn State women's lacrosse rallies past James Madison

Katie O'Donnell didn't need much extra time to find the net.

After James Madison held the sophomore midfielder scoreless in regulation, O'Donnell scored the sudden-death golden goal just 1:18 into overtime, completing Penn State's comeback from a three-goal deficit to win 18-17. The 18 goals were the Nittany Lions' highest total on the road since March 12, 2014 at Rutgers (19).

The No. 9 Lions (5-1) trailed 17-14 with 7:07 remaining against the Dukes (2-5). However, midfielders Madison Carter, Madison Cyr and Steph Lazo scored within 81 seconds to tie the score and force overtime.

Carter, a freshman, ruled the day for the Lions, scoring six goals.
