The Syosset Dynamite won an exciting game that ended in a Sudden Death shoot- out to win the first round of the State Cup Challenge. With the score tied at 1-1, thanks to a goal by Nicole Nieminski, the Syosset Dynamite was forced to play a 20-minute overtime period. Neither team scored in that period so the game was sent into a 5 on 5 shoot out. Nicole Nieminski, Bonni Greenwald and Megan Graff each scored goals to keep Syosset in the game. At the end of the shoot out the score remained tied so they were forced into a Sudden Death one on one shoot-out. Allison Iannolo scored the winning goal to win the game for the Dynamite. FULL STORY
