Box Score

Indiana, Pa. – The Millersville field hockey team had its record evened to 1-1 after falling to No. 3 UMass Lowell 1-0 on Monday at Miller Stadium in Indiana (Pa.). The River Hawks improved to 3-0 on the year after securing the non-conference win.

With less than 10 minutes left to play in first-half action, UMass Lowell's Rachel McCarthy found her way around Marauder goalkeeper Sara Dickinson to put the River Hawks up one. Millersville failed to mount a charge in the second, managing just four shots to Lowell's 13.

Dickinson's play kept the Marauders close, though. She recorded 15 saves, 10 of which came in the second half.

Two members of the front line recorded all of Millersville's seven shots. Senior Emily Woodland registered four shots and sophomore Ashley Weber totaled three.

The Marauders were out-shot by the nationally-ranked River Hawks by a 27-7 margin. The River Hawks took seven corners to Millersville's six.

Melanie Hopkins tallied four saves for UMass Lowell and registered her third shutout in as many days. Sammy Macy registered 11 shots on goal, and Katie Enaire totaled nine.
