LORETTO, Pa. – With the outcome in doubt longer than they had hoped, the Lock Haven University field hockey team (11-1, 2-0 NEC) broke a scoreless tie over 56 minutes into today’s match with St. Francis University (0-9, 0-1 NEC) eventually winning by a 2-0 tally. LHU peppered St. Francis with 31 shots, out-shooting SFU by 29.

Junior Nikki Sweger (Dauphin/Central Dauphin East) broke the scoreless tie with her ninth goal of the season, off a pass from Kellie Kulina (Hummelstown/Lower Dauphin). It was a record goal for both members, as Sweger now has 40 career goals, moving ahead of assistant coach Shanna Vitale for eighth in school history and Kulina’s assist makes her the all-time assist leader in LHU field hockey with 36.

Samantha Stoyer (Lititz/Manheim Township) tacked on a penalty-corner goal with less than eight minutes left to give the Lady Eagles the 2-0 finish.

Goalkeeper Melissa Stubblefield (Carmel, N.Y./Carmel) made two saves to improve to 11-1, Kristin Onto made nine stops in 11 to get the loss.

Sweger, Kulina, Vitale, Stoyer, Stubblefield and the rest of the Lady Eagles are back in action Saturday, Oct. 2 at 1 p.m. against Columbia University as part of the LHU Invite Tournament.
