Game Photos: Wings Rally Late To Beat Stealth In OT 10-9


The Philadelphia Wings improved their season record to 1-1 winning a 10-9 overtime thriller over the Washington Stealth at Wells Fargo Center Saturday Night.

After rallying from a two-goal deficit early in the fourth quarter, the Philadelphia Wings took a late lead and then held on to force overtime against the 2010 NLL champion Stealth. Wings standout rookie Kevin Crowley put an end to the game just 3:27 into the extra period and accounted for half of the team’s goals in the game.

Crowley tallied five goals and one assists to lead the Wings to victory, proving for the second straight game that he was worth the number one overall pick this past summer. With his six points tonight, Crowley now has an impressive 14 total points (8G, 6A) on the season.

It was a back and forth contest all night, with neither team leading by any more than three throughout the entire game. Trailing 6-5, entering the decisive fourth quarter, the Wings came out aggressive as forward Brendan Mundorf lit the lamp twice within the first three minutes and three seconds of the quarter to give the Wings a 7-6 advantage. Drew Westervelt added a goal less than a minute later putting the Wings ahead 8-6.

Washington tied the game at 9-9 with just more than three minutes remaining in the game, but Wings responded.

Also playing well for Philadelphia were Westervelt with three goals and Dan Dawson with four helpers. Goalie Brandon Miller was a brick wall between the pipes, making several spectacular saves throughout the game and tallying 49 saves. For more info on the game click here.

The Wings wore Digi-Camo uniforms because of their recent partnership businesses to support The Wounded Warrior Project. Brinker Capital and eMoney provided the Wings with commemorative camouflage jerseys that will be auctioned after the game. Auction proceeds will benefit the Wounded Warriors Project, a non-profit organization that seeks to honor and empower injured veterans.
