The Field Hocky team is the first up with big time games for Men's Soccer(Northwestern) and Liberty for the football team. Penn State has lost two straight to no 1 Maryland and No 14 American. Unfortunately for these games their Head Coach was absent because of a family situation so she returns for us. We have a very solid defense with our goalie nationally ranked in goals against.( She is ranked 4th in the country) We need our very good freshman to step up tonight. Kelly Hilovsky a senior captain scored two goals last week end and she is a very solid performer.
This will be a high hill to climb but will show us where we are and hopefullly where we are going!! Early goals for us would be very helpful!
GO PARDs!!

We have started recieving votes on national polls this week and win would be huge!!

This was no fluke!! In overtime we beat Penn State 1-0. We stopped them at every turn our defense was AWSOME. The winning goal by freshman Deanna Decroce. We out shot them, out cornered, and our defense especially Meghan Cicci and goalie Kelsey Andersen were virtual walls out there. Next up University of the Pacific tomorrow at 7. Team in now 4-1.
