The Elizabethtown College field hockey team went up against Susquehanna University in the Landmark Conference semifinal Oct. 31 on Wolf Field in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania.

When these two faced off in September, the Blue Jays won, but for the semifinals Susquehanna showed up stronger than before and was able to push just one goal ahead of Etown in the end.

While the Jays outshot the River Hawks by a mile, the one shot they were able to get by in the first half made all the difference in the world on the scoreboard. Juniors Madison Kubik and Lauren Scheib, along with senior Maggie Fees, all had shots blocked by Susquehanna’s goalkeeper.

Etown also notably earned double the amount of corners as the River Hawks, but none of these resulted in a goal.

In fact, neither team received a foul or offside for the entirety of this game, but even this could not push the Jays to earn the advantage. All around, the women played phenomenally with seven more shots than Susquehanna, their only shot being the winning goal.

This will ultimately close out Etown’s chance of advancing further in the Landmark Conference playoffs, while Susquehanna will move on to the championship final against the University of Scranton.
