Field Hockey Drops Narrow Home Opener 3-2 Against Stockton

Migaliaccio and Froehlich both score early in contest

HOBOKEN, N.J. (Sept. 7, 2019) – Skylar Migliaccio and Brynn Froehlich scored early goals in the first quarter, but the Stevens Institute of Technology field hockey team could not hold on as they fell 3-2 against Stockton Saturday at DeBaun Athletic Complex.

After the Ducks took an early 2-0 lead with goals in the sixth and 15th, respectively, the Ospreys responded with single goals in the second, third and fourth quarters to take home the victory and move to 3-0 on the year while the ducks dropped to 2-2.

Migliaccio netted the first goal of the game for Stevens when she found the back of the net on a penalty shot for her first score of the season.

Froehlich then gave the Ducks a two-score lead with just 10 seconds remaining in the first quarter after dribbling around the goalkeeper and shooting it in off an assist from Jaymie Fiebel.

Turning Point
  • With less than five minutes remaining in regulation, Stockton was able to play the ball into the circle and draw a foul to earn a penalty shot.
  • Gianna Morganti then stepped up and fired the ball into the bottom left corner of the cage to give the Ospreys a 3-2 advantage they would not relinquish.
Inside the Numbers
  • The Ducks held a 22-12 advantage in total shots as well as a 12-8 edge in shots on goal.
  • Stevens also managed to take 15 penalty corners compared to just 12 for Stockton.
  • Of the 15 penalty corners for the Ducks, 11 were taken in the fourth quarter.
  • After tonight's one-score loss, Stevens is now 8-5 over the last two seasons in games decided by one goal.
  • Individually, Froehlich and Alyssa Appleby led the Ducks with three total shots each.
  • Emily Franco was able to notch five saves in goal for Stevens.

Unsung Hero
  • Coming off the bench, Fiebel played a total of 29 minutes and registered her first assist of the season and the third of her career.
  • The junior from Roxbury, N.Y., also chipped in a pair of shots on the night.
