Cardinal earn late goal to take game at the Gladchuk Sports Complex

AMHERST, Massachusetts - The University of Massachusetts field hockey program dropped a closely-contested game to No. 18 Stanford, 1-0 at the Gladchuk Sports Complex on Friday afternoon. The Minutewomen fall to 4-4 overall with the loss while the Cardinal improve to 3-4.

Stanford scored in the 62nd minute when Jessica Welch dribbled into the circle and shot high into the left side. It marked one of only seven shots allowed to the Cardinal by the UMass defense during the 70-minute tilt while only two of those attempts went on-target. 

Massachusetts countered with six shots total, including three directed at the cage. Junior midfielder Sarah Hawkshaw tallied five of those attempts while senior forward Izzie Delario accounted for the sixth.

Kelsey Bing made three saves for the shutout victory, with one each in the 23rd, 49th and 63rd minutes. Emily Hazard made one stop for the Minutewomen.

The Maroon and White travel to No. 9 Boston College for their next contest, a Sun., Sept. 25 game in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, at 2 p.m.
