Mertens, a senior from Succasunna, N.J., scored not one but two game-winners over the weekend as the nationally 16th ranked Hornets opened the season with a pair of one-goal victories. In a victory over Gettysburg, Mertens ran on to a tidy slip pass from Hannah Olds and deposited a low shot past the Bullets goalkeeper for a 97th-minute winner. Mertens game-decider came much sooner in game two of the Shellenberger Classic, a 1-0 win over Marysville (Tenn.) College. She converted off a cross from Kennedy Jakubek in the 51st minute to provide the winning margin.
