BABSON PARK, Mass. - Logan Ventura buried a 15-yard shot from the right edge of the box 34 seconds into the second overtime, lifting Babson College to a thrilling 1-0 victory over visiting Bowdoin College in non-conference men's soccer action on Sunday afternoon at Hartwell-Rogers Field.

With its fourth straight win, Babson is now 11-4-0 overall, while Bowdoin, which came into the match having won six of its last seven games, drops to 8-5-0 on the year. The Polar Bears had not lost to the Beavers since 2008.

Ventura got to a loose ball in front of the Polar Bears bench and carried it nearly 25 yards and dodging a pair of defenders before hitting a brilliant strike past first-year goalkeeper Stevie Van Sicklen and into the upper corner for his first career game-winning tally.

After a scoreless opening 45 minutes that featured very few scoring chances, play opened up after halftime. Bowdoin first-year Sam Ward ripped a 25-yard rocket that Beavers' junior goalkeeper Stephen Donato knocked down in the 50th minute, and sophomore Matt Dias Costa missed wide just outside the six-yard box after a buildup down the right side in the 74th minute.

Babson's best chances in regulation came over the final 13 minutes, earning five corner kicks in a four-minute stretch. Junior Tyler Carlos hit a low free kick that deflected out of play from 25 yards in the 82nd minute, and classmate Mario Vicente corralled a rebound some 35 yards away from goal and hit a shot that was headed on frame before being cleared away for a corner by a sliding Bowdoin defender in the 83rd minute.

The Beavers had the only scoring chance of the first overtime period, but senior Peter Van Noppen's shot from the left edge of the six-yard box following a scramble in front of the goal deflected off a Polar Bears' defender in the 95th minute.

Donato turned away three shots to post his second shutout of the season for the Green and White, while Van Sicklen made five saves for Bowdoin.

The Polar Bears return to action next Saturday as they visit Colby at 1:30 p.m.
