Lenape has won its third straight state title after Katie Rigby headed in a corner kick from Chelsea Cannon with 5:37 left in the first overtime to give the Indians a 1-0 win over Westfield.
The game moved into the first sudden death OT. Teams play two 10-minute periods. If nobody scores, they will be declared cochampions.

Lenape’s Katie Rigby just missed getting her foot on the ball in front and goalie Meg Brody scooped it up early in the second half.
Rigby had a few times when she was near the goal, but Brody, who is quick off her line, was able to beat her to the ball.
No team had a great scoring chance in the first half, although Lenape’s Rigby was sent on goal by Devon Betsch and was just beaten to the ball by Brody.
