September 23, 2008
LEWISTON, Maine -- The
Bates College
field hockey team emerged from a 1-1 tie at halftime to
dominate the visiting
New England
College Pilgrims in the second half on Wednesday evening
at
Campus
Avenue Field, registering a 5-1 non-conference victory.
Bates (2-4)
outshot NEC (6-3) by a 22-1 margin in the second half, 34-9
for the entire game.
Bates senior
Rachel Greenwood (Williamstown, Mass.) and sophomore Sema
Kazarian (Providence, R.I.) each scored twice for
Bates, with
Greenwood adding in an assist. Senior Emily Sampson
(Plymouth, N.H.) added a goal and an assist as
Bates scored
five goals for the first time in over a year (since
defeating
Amherst 5-4
on Sept. 15, 2007).
Greenwood got the Bobcats on the board in the 13th minute on
an assist by Sampson, but
New England
College senior Jodie Dresser (Keene, N.H.) tied the game
at 1-1 in the 14th minute, assisted by junior Khatianna
Evans (Wayne, Maine) on a penalty corner.
The teams stayed knotted until six minutes into the second
half, when Sampson blasted Greenwood's insert pass on a
penalty corner to score the eventual game-winner.
Kazarian got into the act in the 63rd minute when she
gathered a Pilgrim turnover and scored off the back of her
stick past NEC
junior goalie Mary Roux (Auburn, Mass.). Greenwood gave
Bates an
insurance goal less than a minute later on a penalty corner,
when she knocked in the rebound of a Roux save. Kazarian
notched her team-high third goal with 1:19 left in the game,
scoring unassisted off another rebounded save.
Roux made 12 saves for the Pilgrims, while
Bates sophomore
keeper Katie McEnroe (Hockessin, Del.) stopped three Pilgrim
shots.
Bates next plays at Tufts University in a
NESCAC
contest on Saturday at 1 p.m.
