Field Hockey Drops Home Opener in Overtime

Field Hockey hosted Arcadia in their first home game of the season. After 60 minutes of regulation, the visiting Knights would score in overtime and win 3-2.

READING, Pa – The Field Hockey team (0-2) played their first home game of the season against Arcadia (2-1). In a physical back and forth match, the Lions would ultimately lose in overtime by a score of 3-2. 
 
Senior Olivia Lorah was the star for the Lions on offense recording both points via a goal and assist. 
 
Junior Keliah Santiago scored a then go-ahead goal for the Lions in the 27th minute off of Lorah's assist.
 
The strongest element for the Lions this afternoon was their stingy defense. Aracdia found themselves on attack via 13 penalty corners, but were ultimately turned away on 12 of the 13 attempts. 
 
First-Year goalkeeper Kelsey McTaggart recorded four saves in the effort. 
 
Chelsea Johnson recorded a pair of shots on goal to tie Lorah and Stantiago for the team lead.

The Lions will head on the road for a pair of games starting with Stevens on Saturday 9/11 at 5:00 pm.
