Ship Snaps Marauders' Streak with Late Goal

Millersville, Pa. - With no time left on the clock, Shippensburg's Molly Stuart ripped a shot that glanced passed Millersville's Lauren Sotzin, giving the visiting Raiders a 2-1 win over the No. 1-ranked Marauders Tuesday at Chryst Field at Biemesderfer Stadium.

Millersville (9-1, 7-1 PSAC) dominated possession for nearly the entire game, holding a 20-8 advantage in shots and a 17-7 edge in penalty corners, but in the final 1:32 of regulation, Shippensburg (9-2, 7-2 PSAC) forced four penalty corners and recorded five shots. The Marauders turned away the first three, but the final corner came with time expired. Stuart hit a rising shot from the right side of the circle that ricocheted into the back of the cage.

The Marauders dictated play early and scored first at 12:10 when Sarah Bomberger tallied her fourth goal of the season. She redirected a Rachel Dickinson shot past Ally Mooney for a 1-0 Millersville lead.

Mooney was forced to make nine saves in the first period while Shippensburg managed just one shot on goal. That one shot, however, resulted in a goal. Cassie Rawa tipped Suzanne Muller's shot off of a corner entry high over Sotzin into the top of the cage.

Over the final 35 minutes, Millersville held an 8-1 advantage in penalty corners until Ship's rush in the final 1:32. Mid-way through the second period, Dickinson looked like she scored the go-ahead goal. Her shot from the top of the circle rolled into the back of the cage but it was disallowed by the officials.

Mooney finished with 11 saves while Sotzin made two. Dickinson led the Marauders with seven shots. Katelyn Zapp and Kayla Bixler both took four.

The loss was not only the Marauders' first of the season, but it also ended a 14-game home winning streak and kept the Marauders from setting a new school record for consecutive victories. Just like in 2014, Shippensburg also ended the 2013 team's nine-game winning streak.

Millersville now travels to Seton Hill on Saturday, Oct. 18.
