Field Hockey falls to second going into Landmark Conference playoffs

The Elizabethtown College field hockey team faced the Catholic University of America Saturday, Oct. 27 in a rainy match at home.

This was a big match for both teams as it decided who gets the number one seed as well as home field advantage in the Landmark Conference playoffs.

Unfortunately, the Blue Jays did not win on their senior night, and will be the second seed going into the playoffs. Taking first seed was Catholic with a 1-0 game win.

Although this game did not fall in the gray and blue’s favor, they did play a well-fought match.

By the end, Catholic had a total of five more shots than Etown, four of them being on goal.

They also doubled the Blue Jays in corners with eight total, and neither team had any fouls or offsides called against them.

Junior Madison Kubik had a notable shot, as did sophomore Emily Garvin. Senior goalie Margo Donlin had three total saves against Catholic.

After Garvin’s shot, the Cardinals held the Blue Jays for the rest of the game.

The Blue Jays were beaten by Susquehanna in the Landmark Semifinals, 1-0 and ended their season with an overall 13-6.
