EVANSTON, Ill. - Fourth-seeded Iowa (12-4, 3-3 Big Ten) needed overtime to defeat No. 5 seed Penn State (12-7, 3-3 Big Ten) in the second game of the Big Ten Field Hockey Tournament, held at Lakeside Field on the campus of Northwestern University.
Iowa had a 2-1 lead until the final 42 seconds of the game, when Penn State's Kiley Kulina scored and sent the game into overtime.
The Hawkeyes wasted no time in the extra period, though, as Patie Gillern scored the game-winning goal just 1:38 in. The goal was Gillern's second of the day, and she also recorded an assist on Sarah Dawson's goal.
Penn State outshot Iowa, 14-12, but failed to capitalize on 10 penalty corners.
Iowa will now face No. 1 seed Michigan State in Saturday morning's first semifinal game at 11:30 a.m.
