Box Score

The St. John Fisher College field hockey team picked up its third win in a row with a 2-1 decision at Washington & Jefferson on Saturday.  The Cardinals now improve to 4-5 on the year, while upping their conference record to 2-1.  With each win, Fisher also builds on the College record for wins in a season, as it is just the second year the program has played.  The Presidents fall to 3-3, 2-1 with the loss.

The Cardinals scored the only goal of the first half, with Kailen Maynard capitalizing on a scramble in front of the net.  Off a pass from Elizabeth Cusack, Maynard was able to push the ball in on the left side of the cage to give Fisher a 1-0 lead heading into the locker room.

Cusack added to that lead in the 67th minute when she scored unassisted to push Fisher's lead to two goals.

The home team added its only goal on the final play of the day, when it was awarded a penalty corner at the 70 minute mark.  The Presidents scored, but it didn't matter as Fisher was able to pull away with the 2-1 win.

Washington & Jefferson held an advantage in both shots (13-8) and penalty corners (14-2).  Danielle Famolaro finished with six saves for Fisher, while Cusack led the Cardinals with four shots.  Caitlin Allen also had three shots in the game.

Fisher will return to action at 5 p.m. on Tuesday when it travels to St. Lawrence University.
