SELINSGROVE, Pa. – The Susquehanna University field hockey
team played host to the Gophers of Goucher College on Saturday
afternoon where the Crusaders had a successful day against their
Landmark Conference opponent, winning 4-1.
Susquehanna has now beaten Goucher in the teams' last seven
matchups, dating back to 2007. During that time, the Crusaders have

Susquehanna (10-8, 2-4) got off to a quick start when freshman

put away the game's first goal following a SU penalty stroke.
Less than five minutes into the second half, freshman Emily
Novakovich (Saratoga, Calif./Lynbrook) put the team up 2-0
when she knocked one into the goal on a rebound from senior
midfielder Rebecca Marion (Wallingford, Pa./Strath

Crusaders lead to one (2-1). The Crusaders rallied back with two
more goals, however. The first came from sophomore
Katherine Millett (Auburn, Maine/North Yarmouth
