BRIDGEWATER, Va. -- Sophomore midfielder Nathanael Knopp scored with 47 seconds remaining in the second overtime period to give the Bridgewater men's soccer team a 3-2 victory over Washington and Lee on Saturday afternoon in Bridgewater, Va.

After a scoreless first half, the Generals (2-2, 0-1) got on the scoreboard when senior defender Derrick Lott (Knoxville, Tenn./Knoxville Catholic) scored on a penalty kick at 51:12. Just over three minutes later, the Eagles (4-3, 1-0) tied the score when freshman forward Chris Thomas scored off a feed from sophomore forward Ben Ostrander.

W&L regained the lead at 2-1 at the 67:01 mark after senior defender Roger Morscheiser (Orlando, Fla./Edgewater) headed a corner kick from sophomore midfielder Josh Dodds (Cedar Rapids, Iowa/Linn-Mar) into the back of the Eagles' net. However, Thomas scored his second goal of the game at 70:48 to even the score at 2-2, setting up Knopp's game-winner.

Freshman goalkeeper Taylor Williams (Winston-Salem, N.C./Forsyth Country Day) and sophomore netminder Ted Sheedy (Pittsburgh, Pa./Fox Chapel) combined to make five saves for the Generals. Junior Mitch Hamersley stopped seven shots for Bridgewater.

Washington and Lee returns to action on Wednesday when it hosts ODAC-foe Emory & Henry. The game begins at 4:30 pm.
