BIDDEFORD -- Michelle Oswald (Jay, Maine) converted a pass from Hayley LaPointe (Topsham, Maine) 3:41 into overtime to give the University of New England a 4-3 non-conference victory over the University of Maine at Farmington in field hockey action Tuesday afternoon at the Big Blue Turf.

Farmington (8-4) is scheduled to Rivier College Saturday (1 p.m.).

After her initial shot was saved by the UMF keeper, LaPointe stepped up to take the rebound and slipped it over to Oswald to knock in the game-winner.

The Nor'easters -- winners of five straight -- improve to 8-4 on the year, while the Beavers drop to 8-4. UNE has now defeated UMaine Farmington the last two seasons, after coming up on the losing end in the six previous meetings.

Farmington's Hattie Laliberte (Guilford, Maine) put the visitors on the board first in the 12th minute, taking a pass from Emma Deans (Gorham, Maine) and registering the first of her two scores on the afternoon.

Big Blue leveled the contest just over seven minutes later, when Laura Egounis (Boscawen, N.H.) set up Hannah Tavella (Putnam Valley, N.Y.) for the rookie's second goal of the season.

UNE's Ayla Nelson (Auburn, Mass.) had 12 saves by halftime, as the game was still tied at 1-1.

Laliberte restored the Beavers' advantage in the 58th minute, only to see UNE's Bree Tupper (Winthrop, Maine) knott things up once again with a goal 1:43 later.

Tavella put the Nor'easters in front for the first time in the 61st minute, but Farmington's Lily Barry (Hermon, Maine) redirected a drive by Deans with 2:39 left in regulation to make it 3-3 and send the match into extra time.

Nelson posted 14 stops for UNE, which resumes TCCC play Saturday against Gordon College (1 p.m.).

Sarah Brown (Windham, Maine) made 11 saves in the loss.
