ONEONTA, N.Y. – Jess Gibaldi (Westbury/W.T. Clarke) scored with 30.7 seconds remaining in the second overtime period to lift third-seeded Cortland past second-seeded Oneonta, 3-2, in the SUNYAC field hockey tournament semifinals.

Cortland (13-5) will travel to top-seeded New Paltz (11-7) for the SUNYAC championship game 1 p.m. Saturday. New Paltz defeated visiting Geneseo, 3-2, in Wednesday's other semifinal contest. The Red Dragons and the Hawks will be meeting in the finals for the third time in four seasons. Cortland won 5-0 at home last year. New Paltz won 4-1 in Cortland in 2015.

Oneonta (10-9) forced overtime with just 1:36 left in regulation when Colleen Geyer blasted home a shot off a penalty corner feed from Grace Bilow.

The teams played a scoreless 10-minute, 7-versus-7 overtime period, and were almost through the second one when Gibaldi scored her second goal of the game and team-high 19th of the season. Molly Quinlan (Fayetteville/Fayetteville-Manlius) sent a pass upfield to Jessica Welsh (Hamilton) to set up a 2-on-1 break. Welsh found Gibaldi wide open about 10 yards in front of the goal. Gibaldi initially had trouble controlling the ball, and Oneonta goalie Danell Jones came off her mark to briefly break up the play and stop Gibaldi from shooting. Gibaldi, however, recovered and knocked home the winning shot.

Oneonta took a 1-0 lead in the 17th minute when Allyson Wells dribbled past a defender and scored on a reverse-stick shot. Cortland tied the game about 10 minutes later. The guests earned four straight penalty corners, and on the last of those Shannon McGuiness (Carle Place) received a ball toward the right side and centered a pass for Gibaldi to set up the tying goal.

Cortland took a 2-1 lead in the 31st minute on another penalty corner situation. McGuinness again picked up an assist as she fed Hannah Burchell (Whitney Point), whose blast from the left side ricocheted off the left post and went in.

Cortland outshot Oneonta, 25-15, but the hosts held a slight 11-10 advantage in penalty corners. Cortland goalie Kailynne Reinoehl (Lititz, PA/Warwick) made 10 saves, including one with 1:21 left in the second overtime during a penalty corner situation. Jones finished with 13 saves for Oneonta. Two of those came in overtime, including a denial on a hard blast by Welsh with 4:17 left.
