Field Hockey Opens MAC Freedom Play with Win over Lycoming

The Stevens defense did not allow a single shot in the 6-0 victory

HOBOKEN, N.J. (Sept. 17, 2022) – The Stevens Institute of Technology field hockey team opened MAC Freedom play with a 6-0 victory over Lycoming College at home, Saturday afternoon. Junior Dani Hessels led all scorers with two goals and sophomore Emily Smart tallied two assists.
 
The Ducks did not take long to find the back of the net. Sophomore Sarah Korczukowski found the back of the net eight minutes into the game for her first goal of the season to give Stevens a 1-0 lead. Her goal was unassisted and the Ducks led after 15 minutes.
 
In the second quarter, Stevens began to pull away. They scored three goals in the period and Hessels got the run started early. She received a pass from Smart in front of the net and quickly slotted it past the Warriors' goalkeeper. First-year Gabi Maroney scored the next goal just a minute later to give the Ducks a 3-0 lead and she was assisted by senior Emily Hyde. The final goal of the quarter came from senior Mackenzy Garden. It was the first of her career as she received the pass from Smart and found the side of the net. The goal gave Stevens a 4-0 advantage headed into the half.
 
To start the third quarter, Hessels scored her second of the game. She scooped up a rebound and put the ball in the back of the net. Maroney was credited with the assist and Stevens led 5-0. There was only one goal in the third and the Ducks added one more in the fourth. Sophomore Makenna Quigley tipped in a shot taken by sophomore Alisyn Fink who was credited with the assist and the Ducks took home the 6-0 victory.
 
The win snapped a two-game winless streak for Stevens and they improved to 4-3 on the year and 1-0 on conference play. Lycoming dropped to 1-5 on the season and 0-1 in conference with the loss.
