Junior goalkeeper Amanda Murray helped RIT to a pair of thrilling, double overtime wins over the weekend at the Rachel Miller Memorial Tournament hosted by the Tigers. Friday, Murray made three saves and did not allow a goal in nearly 107 minutes of action as RIT beat Allegheny 1-0. With just twenty seconds to play in the first overtime, Murray made a diving stop to keep the game tied and send it to a second overtime. On Saturday, she made five saves and picked up her second straight shutout as RIT beat Otterbein 1-0 in the 107th minute. Murray made a big save late in the second half and another early in the first overtime to keep the game scoreless and allow the Tigers to win.
