PORT BYRON - The Cato-Meridian field hockey team rallied from a 1-0 deficit with less than five minutes left to tie Port Byron 1-1 on Wednesday.

Chelsea Gilbert found Hannah Stanistreet for the tying goal on a penalty corner.

"I think that we came out and we really shocked some people," said Blue Devil coach Kim Faust, "which is what our plan was - to come out and really show people it's a new year for Cato-Meridian field hockey."

Port Byron took the lead early in the second half when Megan Nervina scored on an assist from Mallory Jakaub.

Each team had 10 shots on goal, while Port Byron had the edge in penalty corners 10-7. Blue Devil goalie Jen Leach had five saves, while Panther goalie Bethany Cereo had 10.

"I think both teams came out ready to play," said Panther coach Kathy Krempasky. "That was evident right through overtime, both teams really wanted to win. It was a fun competition I thought."

Port Byron (1-0-1) plays in the Camden Tournament this weekend, while Cato-Meridian (0-0-1) travels to Cortland on Friday.
