VESTAL -- Joe Losier scored on a penalty kick 3:27 into the second overtime, leading Vermont (6-4-4, 3-0-1 AE) to a 1-0 win over Binghamton (6-7-0, 2-2-0 AE) in an America East mens soccer game at the Bearcats Sports Complex on Saturday evening. The match took place before a Homecoming crowd of 1,973 fans.

Losiers penalty kick was set up when Binghamton was called for a foul inside of the box. He then belted the ball into the upper left-hand corner of the net for his sixth goal of the season.

The Bearcats had been in control of the match, outshooting the Catamounts 16-6 for the game. Conor Leland, however, made seven saves to preserve the shutout.

For Binghamton, freshman goalkeeper Stefano Frantellizzi made one save.

The Bearcats host Hartford next Saturday night at 7 p.m.
