“It took us a bit to get going tonight,” Alton head coach Gwen Sabo said. “Collinsville kept the play very even, and controlled the ball well. We really picked up the intensity during the first overtime period, and carried that momentum into the second period, which is when we scored.”

Kahok goalie Claire Rendelman made four saves on the evening, while Addison Miller had six saves in recording her 12th clean sheet of the season.

The Redbirds are now 13-8-0 on the season and play at Highland on Friday afternoon in a 4:15 p.m kickoff, then travel to Edwardsville on Tuesday in a 6:30 p.m. kickoff.

The Kahoks are now 8-9-2 on the year and next play at O’Fallon on Tuesday, and then host Edwardsville next Thursday. Both games are set to kickoff at 6:30 p.m.
