Vassar College sophomore defender Tyler Gilmore had a career outing against Manhattanville, scoring the equalizer and last-second game-winner in Vassar's 2-1 win (Sept. 6). The Valiants went ahead 1-0 in the 59th minute but Gilmore came through in crunch time. In the 84th minute, Hayden Van Brewer bent a cross from the right to Gilmore, who headed in a goal from close range to level the match at 1-all. Then, with 19 seconds remaining, Gilmore capitalized on a Van Brewer corner kick, slotting the game-winner into the right corner with a header. Gilmore also bolstered a Brewer defense that posted two shutouts in Vassar's 3-0 week.
