CARLISLE, Pa. - Allison Bauer scored the game-winning goal in
the 61st minute as Franklin & Marshall defeated
Dickinson 3-2 in a Centennial Conference (CC) field hockey game.
The Diplomats (7-7, 3-5 CC) dominated in shots, holding a
16-8 advantage over the Red Devils (5-9, 3-4 CC).
The Red Devils struck early when Lizzie Boorse put back a
rebound off a shot by Alyssa Sands at 2:21. The Diplomats answered
five minutes later on hard blast at the top of the circle from
Faith Musengezi. Kimmy Fisher put F&M up 2-1 when she
knocked in a Maura Hennigan shot at 19:10. Sands knotted the game
at two apiece with ten minutes remaining in the half.
Both defenses played strong throughout the second half.
F&M keeper Naomi Stone (6-5) had two of her four saves in
the half. She was outmatched by the Red Devils' Amanda West who
picked up six of her seven saves in the stanza.
The Diplomats went up for good at 60:57 when Eileen O'Reilly's
shot went high and Bauer deflected the ball in for the
game-winner.
The Red Devils had a great chance with just over two minutes
left to play. Sands hit the post with a shot before Katie Mersky
looked to finish the rebound. F&M's Paulette Cutruzzula made a
great defensive save behind Stone to preserve the win.
Franklin & Marshall returns to action on October
24th when the Diplomats host Muhlenberg. The game will
be a part of the homecoming festivities and the F&M seniors
will be honored before the game.
