MILTON - An early overtime goal by the Red Hawks' Amber Davis was the only score of the game.
"It was a long free kick, and (Davis) hit a header in right in front of the goal," Monroe coach Miriam O'Neill said. "That's a very tough shot for a goalie to guard."
Gail LaVoie had nine saves throughout the game for Monroe, but Milton put a shot into the back of the net just 34 seconds into the extra frame to steal a conference win.
"Gail played a great game and had some really nice saves," O'Neill said.
Monroe (4-3-3) had trouble adjusting to Milton's speed and physical play. However, O'Neill said that in the second half the Cheesemakers stepped up their game.
