The Captains regained the lead in the 28th minute, but Kean countered again 10 minutes later as Natale netted a goal off a pass from Seidel.
Kean outshot CNU, 25-8, not allowing the Captains a single shot in the overtime periods.
Junior Leandra Russo (Galloway, N.J.) recorded four saves in the draw.
