The St. Lawrence University field hockey team lost to the 18th-ranked Cortland Red Dragon's 3-0 on Wednesday afternoon in Canton, N.Y.
Six and a half minutes into the game Madison Rice got her stick on a shot from Hanna Corrigan to redirect the ball into the cage. Midway through the second quarter Jamie Snyder made it two, tapping the ball just across the line following some congestion in front of the goal. In the fourth period Molly Miller rebounded a shot saved by
Lucy Adiutori, and Cortland won 3-0.
The Saints earned a penalty corner just three minutes into the game, but their lone shot on goal came in the final minutes of the fourth. The Saints earned their third and final penalty corner, and
Suzanne L'Hommedieu collected the ball and fired it on net, but goalkeeper Emma Morgan came up with the save to preserve her clean sheet.
Lucy Adiutori made 10 saves for St. Lawrence, and L'Hommedieu had a pair of defensive saves.
The Red Dragons out shot the Saints 16-1 and had a dozen more penalty corners.
