Indiana, Pa. - The Rock's bid for a second successive Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference championship ended 14-plus minutes into a second overtime period of Friday afternoon's semifinal round as hosting Indiana U. of Pa. won a 2-1 decision.

The Indians (14-5) will now meet second-ranked West Chester (19-0) in the conference finals Sunday in Indiana.

West Chester beat Kutztown, 4-2, in the other semifinal Friday.

SRU, which has a 12-6-1 record, must now await its fate on Monday when the NCAA regional tournament berths are handed out.

Indiana took a 1-0 lead in the 15th minute of action in Friday's game before Danielle Cooper converted an assist from Jaimi Wilson into a game-tying goal in the 55th minute.
