CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - Just 38 seconds into overtime, Arianna Doss netted the game-winner in the first round of the NEWMAC Tournament to give the top-seeded MIT women's soccer team a 1-0 win over eight-seeded Wellesley on Tuesday afternoon on Roberts Field. 
 
THE BASICS: 

• Score: MIT 1, Wellesley 0 (OT) 
• Records: No. 8 MIT (18-2-1 Overall), Wellesley (6-9-4 Overall) 

HOW IT HAPPENED: 

• The Engineers had some momentum in the first half with seven shots and 11 corner kicks, but the Blue defense allowed just one shot on target as the teams played a scoreless first half. 
• MIT got three shots on goal in the senior half, but Riley McNair turned them all away to send the teams to overtime tied at zero. 
• The host needed less than 40 seconds in the extra period to take the win. Natalie Barnouw sent a crossfield pass to Doss who put the shot into the center of the net past McNair and two Blue defenders to send MIT into the semifinals.
