An update: Now 13-2 after a 3-0 win over App State, in which our goalie had to make a mind-bending ZERO saves.

Next up is the well-known Bellermine. The internet tells me that the school is in Louisville, and that their field hockey record is the inverse of ours at 2-13.

Edit: 5-0 win.

The angle of incidence = the angle of reflection: REBOUND!

Squeaked out a 7-nil win over Ball State today. Shots on goal were 17 to 1.

MAC regular co-champs. Onto the MAC playoffs with a first round bye.

Bring home that trophy ladies! (Is it ok to say ladies?)
All due respect, and I mean that from the bottom of my heart, I'm gonna pass.

This season we beat App State but lost to Ohio.

We win 4-1 over App. State so we're now in the championship game on Saturday. I don't know who we're playing, maybe it hasn't been decided yet?

I just did some research on the Field Hockey Programs luck that makes the Football Team curse seem normal!

***** They lost their NINTH Conference Championship Game in a row (First in the MAC) and Eleventh of their last 13!

First time watching Field Hockey. It was very hard to follow. I googled the rules hoping to understand. Still shaking my head.

Funny! I had a friend who had two daughters who grew up playing Field Hockey and eventually played in college, and he said he would hear a whistle - watch the signals - and still had no idea what had happened!
