Box Score

GENESEO, N.Y. - SUNY Geneseo sophomore forward Bryan Wager scored the game-winning goal with 34 seconds left in the second overtime period to propel the Knights to a 2-1 victory over visiting Fredonia in State University of New York Athletic Conference (SUNYAC) action, Saturday at College Stadium.

HOW IT HAPPENED
