SCSU Field Hockey Falls To Assumption

WORCESTER, Mass. – Southern Connecticut State field hockey junior goalkeeper Lyndsay Troisi authored a performance for the record books at Assumption with a career-best 21 saves in a 4-1 loss to the Greyhounds. With the loss, Southern dropped to 7-11 overall with a Northeast-10 mark of 3-6.

Troisi's 21 saves are the most by an SCSU goalkeeper since 2021 and set a new career high for the junior. Facing relentless pressure from the Greyhounds, Troisi played all 60 minutes and turned away 21 of 25 shots on goal. Assumption finished with a 38-7 advantage in total shots and 14-4 edge in penalty corners.

Despite the final margin, Troisi kept Southern Connecticut in the game from the opening whistle. The Greyhounds came out firing with 11 shots in the first quarter alone, but Troisi made five saves in the frame, including back-to-back stops in the first two minutes and another pair during Assumption's early corner sequence.

She was equally sharp in the second quarter with five more saves. After Assumption earned corners at 15:29 and 15:39, Troisi denied the Greyhounds and later made consecutive saves at 24:27 and 24:32 to keep the game scoreless heading into halftime.

Assumption finally broke through in the third quarter. The Greyhounds opened the scoring at 31:36 and then again less than two minutes later to make it 2-0.

Southern responded. After earning a corner at 40:28, the Owls generated sustained pressure. Sofia Frassinelli's shot was blocked, but Kate Salvador cleaned up the rebound sequence with back-to-back shots on goal. Her second attempt found the back of the cage at 40:43 for her fourth goal of the season, cutting the deficit to 2-1. It was one of four shots on goal for Salvador, who led SCSU with four shots overall.

Assumption restored its two-goal cushion on a penalty stroke at 46:04, and then added another at 52:09 to close the scoring at 4-1.

Troisi did not waver late. She added five saves in the third and six more in the fourth quarter, including three saves in a span of 11 seconds early in the final period.
