BALTIMORE – UMBC sophomore striker Taylor Calheira (Towson, Md./Concordia Prep) gave UMBC (1-1-1) its lone lead of the night with a goal late in the first overtime period as the Retrievers defeated La Salle, 3-2, in a UMBC-Navy Classic contest played at Retriever Soccer Park.

La Salle (1-2) led, 1-0, and 2-1, before junior midfielder Ryan Becher (Hummelstown, Pa.) knotted the game at 2-2 in the 82'.
