Two Late Goals Doom CMU Field Hockey
9/22/2019 3:15:00 PM | Field Hockey
LORETTA, Pa. – Saint Francis scored two goals in the final seven minutes on Sunday in handing Central Michigan a 3-2 nonconference field hockey loss.
How It Happened
CMU got goals from Alli Huddleson and Taryn Damm in building a 2-1 lead. Huddleson's goal, which came less than three minutes into the game, was CMU's first goal in five games and it came off a penalty corner.
Damm's goal, with under 17 minutes remaining, gave the Chippewas their 2-1 lead and it came 41 seconds after Saint Francis scored to tie the game.
"We showed that, they can score a goal, we can do the same thing," CMU coach Catherine Ostoich said. "We were resilient until the end of the game."
Taylor Nesmith tied the game with a goal with 6:54 remaining. Taylin Lehman scored the game-winner with just over for minutes left.
"We started off well," Ostoich said. "We were the ones outhustling them in the beginning. I don't know if we lost energy or we were tired, but (Saint Francis) just showed the grit and the hustle more than we did. Unfortunately, the last few minutes, they outhustled us. They wanted it more."
Alice O'Hagan and Huddleson each had an assist for the Chippewas.
Solid in Goal
CMU goalkeeper Abigail Ebersole made 15 saves for the second-consecutive game. She has posted 46 saves in her last three games.
Next
CMU will play a Mid-American Conference game at Ball State on Saturday, Sept. 28 (1 p.m.).
