Warriors score twice in fourth quarter at Juniata

HUNTINGDON, Pa. – Sophomore Kelly Preston (Boonton, N.J./Mountain Lakes) scored her team-leading sixth goal of the season, sparking a late rally as the Lycoming College field hockey team scored twice in the last 2:31, but fell to Juniata College, 6-2, in Landmark Conference action on Wednesday night, Oct. 11, at Knox Stadium.
 
Preston tipped in her sixth goal, when sophomore Katie Loughran (Ottsville, Pa./Pennridge) got the ball off a penalty corner and fired it into a scrum, where Preston caught it for the score with 2:31 remaining. Just over two minutes later, the Warriors drew another penalty corner with time running down, Loughran poked a pass over to junior Halie Woodring (Hummelstown, Pa./Lower Dauphin) at the top of the circle and Woodring fired it past the keeper.
 
The two goals give Lycoming (4-7 overall, 0-2 Landmark) 22 goals this year, just two off the school record of 24 set by the 1987 team.
 
Sydney Witter had a goal and two assists to lead the Eagles (4-8 overall, 1-3 Landmark) and Aimee Buffington had a goal and an assist, as Juniata scored three times in the first quarter and two times in the second to post the win.
 
Sophomore goalkeeper Isabella Bobé (York Springs, Pa./Bermudian Springs) stopped 12 shots, as Juniata took 20 in the game. Brittany McMullen and Amanda Puza combined to make one stop for Juniata.
 
The Warriors are back on the field on Saturday, Oct. 14, when they host Catholic University in Landmark Conference action at 1 p.m. at UPMC Field.
