King’s overtime goal perfectly timed for Panthers

When Strath Haven needed a goal in overtime, who else would it look to than Lizzie King?

Isabel Kusyk put Lower Merion ahead on a penalty kick in the 20th minute, but King answered a minute later as the Panthers (5-1, 3-0 Central) stayed unbeaten in the league.
