Senior Ashley Flanigan scored the Eagles first goal of the second half to start the rally of three straight goals that would put the game away with Flanigan netting the game-winner. We always have that trouble. Dupcak was happy with the way that the Eagles settled and put the game away. We did a good job of slowing down, running the plays, just like practice, and the defense held steady. Dupcak said that the game was a good way to break the Eagles three-game losing streak.
Any win is a good win.
Richmond is always a tough, good rival. We always play overtime or one goal loss, so it feels good to beat them. It was a good confidence builder. Flanigan, senior Bridget McGeady, sophomore Nadia Harmsen, freshman Lindsay Cartin, freshman Nicole McCarthy, and freshman Courtney Bennett all scored for the Eagles. The Tribe controlled the game from all angles, outdrawing American 13-5 and collecting 52 groundballs to the Eagles' 32.
