Field Hockey Edged By Saint Thomas Aquinas, 2-1

SPARKILL, N.Y. – The Southern Connecticut State University field hockey team fell to Saint Thomas Aquinas, 2-1 at Spartan Field. The Owls fall to 1-15 overall and 1-12 in the Northeast 10, while the Spartans improve to 9-8 overall and 7-6 in the NE10.

Junior Karley Welles (Newington, Conn.) scored her fifth goal of the season, while fellow junior Jessica Maier (Enfield, Conn.) collected her team-leading third assist of the season. Senior Brianna Craft (Hamden, Conn.) made 11 saves in goal for the Owls.

How It Happened
  • Welles got the Owls on the board with just under three minutes played in the first quarter.
  • The Spartans tied the game at one in the 26th minute and then scored the go-ahead goal in the 51st minute of the game. STAC's late fourth quarter goal proved to be the difference-maker as the Spartans captured a 2-1 victory in Sparkill.
 
Notes
