Box Score

SELINSGROVE, Pa. – Susquehanna's field hockey team did not let a 2-0 halftime deficit get them down, as the Crusaders rebounded to grab a 3-2, overtime win against Kean on Tuesday night.

With four  minutes remaining in the first overtime period, Rebecca Entwistle (Wall Twp., N.J./Wall) came in off the bench and almost immediately scored the game winner off a Julia Amendola (Mountain Top, Pa./Bishop Hoban) assist to cap off SU's (8-6) comeback.

Amendola had a hand in all three of Susquehanna's goal with three assists. Ally Bradley (Jamison, Pa./Central Bucks South), meanwhile, scored the Crusaders first two goals, including the one that eventually sent the game to overtime.

The teams matched each other in nearly every aspect of the game, with both squads taking 11 shots and the two goalies recording four saves apiece, with all of SU goalie Erin Ferguson's (Mount Laurel, N.J./Seneca) coming in the second half.

Susquehanna found itself in a 1-0 hole less than two minutes into the action when Kean's Olivia Triano capitalized on a penalty corner opportunity by Amie Hoch by re-directing her pass past goalie Erin Ferguson.

That duo connected on a near carbon-copy goal less than 10 minutes later to make it a 2-0 lead for the Cougars (7-4).

Bradley finally got SU on the scoreboard with 7:21 remaining in the first half when Amendola's pass found Bradley in front of the cage. Bradley knocked the pass into the left side of cage to bring the Crusaders within one of the lead.

It remained a 2-1 Kean lead until there were two minutes left in regulation. That was when Bradley and Amendola teamed up again with Bradley scoring the game-tying goal and forcing overtime where Entwistle came through in the clutch to hand SU the win.

The win was the Crusaders' second in a row and third in their last four games.

Next game: Saturday, Oct. 16 vs. William Paterson at 1 p.m.
