Genevieve Montanye scored her second triple-overtime game-winner in five days to lift the Misericordia University women's lacrosse team to an 8-7 win over FDU-Florham in the MAC Freedom Semifinals, Wednesday night at Mangelsdorf Field.
 
Montanye took a pass in front from Kylee Cush, pump-faked the goalie and scored low inside the right post midway through the third overtime.
 
Madelyn Uetz had eight saves in goal, including two point-blank stops in the second-OT.
 
Michelle Torzilli had four goals and an assist and Montanye had two goals and two assists.
 
Rachel Shook had two goals and an assist, including the game-tying goal late in the fourth quarter, and added a team-high seven draw controls.
 
FDU-Florham took a 1-0 lead six minutes into the game and the Cougars tied when Emily Baro found Torzilli cutting down the middle of the lane with 1:34 left in the first quarter.
 
Torzilli made another nice cut from the right flank and took a pass in front of the cage from Montanye to give MU a 2-1 lead in the opening minute of the second period.
 
Torzilli returned the favor and Montanye turned and shot from five yards out to make it 3-1 less than a minute later.
 
Cush hit Torzilli in stride for a 4-1 lead just 14 seconds later.
 
Following a Devils goal, Shook weaved through the defense and scored in the top right corner to put MU in front, 5-2, midway through the second quarter.
 
FDU-Florham scored three goals in the final 3:12 of the first half to pull even.
 
Misericordia nearly killed a three-man advantage, but the Devils tallied a man-up goal for the only score of the third quarter and a 6-5 lead.
 
The Devils went up 7-5 with 12:14 to play, but Torzilli answered less than a minute later.
 
Shook took a perfect pass in front of the net from Montanye to notch the game-tying goal with 3:47 left in regulation.
 
Neither team threatened in the first extra session and Uetz kept the Cougars alive with two big stops in the second overtime.
 
Misericordia will play at Stevens in the MAC Freedom title game, Saturday.
