Last Game Recaps
On Wednesday evening, Maritime defeated the York (N.Y.) Cardinals by the score of 4-1. The Privateers got a pair of goals from freshman Marisa Athan (Mineola, N.Y./Mineola) to open up the scoring. With her second goal of the game Athan netted her first career game-winning tally on her fifth goal of the season. Senior Jorrie Trenkamp (Tabernacle, N.J./Seneca) and sophomore Leanne Lavelle (New Windsor, N.Y./Washingtonville) also scored in the game, while junior Gabrielle Fox (Strasburg, Pa./Lampeter-Strasburg) had a pair of assists in the win.
Sage enters on a six-game skid, and has not scored in a full calendar month since its 5-0 win over Green Mountain on September 7. Emily Stevenson and Nicole Maher lead the team with three and two goals respectively. Teagan Waddingham has registered 77 saves and a 3.11 goals against average as she has played every minute in goal for the Gators.
Farmingdale plays St. Joseph's (LI) on Friday in what could prove to be a battle for a first-round bye in the Skyline Conference Tournament. In their previous contest, the Rams fell by a 4-0 score to the Ephs of Williams College, who are one of the top teams in the New England region.
