SFU Sets Single Game Scoring Record against Siena

BOX SCORE LORETTO, Pa. (Sept. 13, 2014) – The Saint Francis University field hockey team used a program-best seven goals to take down Siena, 7-1, on Saturday at DeGol Field to remain undefeated.
 
Six different Red Flash (4-0) players scored in the contest. Autumn Pellman (Millerstown, Pa./Greenwood) scored twice and now has eight goals in four games to start the season. SFU outshot the Saints (0-4) 25-4 in the game and registered 16 penalty corners compared to just two for Siena.
 
Mackenzie Wirth (Thompsontown, Pa./Greenwood) started the scoring for Saint Francis 18 minutes into the game with the assist going to Kelly Quealy (Fairfield, Pa./Fairfield Area). Selena Adamshick (Harveys Lake, Pa./Lake-Lehman) scored just three minutes later as she dribbled through a few defenders and fired a shot past Siena goalkeeper Mary Drabich, and SFU took the 2-0 lead.
 
Pellman scored her first of the afternoon at the 25:24 mark. Quealy picked up her second assist on the goal after weaving through defenders and finding the open Pellman to give the Red Flash the 3-0 advantage.
 
Abby Webb (Easton, Md./Saints Peter & Paul) scored her first goal of the season at the 33:10 mark off a beautiful play from Adamshick who took a ball from Makea and moved past defenders to find Webb all alone on the left side. Saint Francis held a 4-0 lead at the halftime break.
 
Nikki Snyder (Harveys Lake, Pa./Lake-Lehman) scored next for the Flash, this time off penalty corner passes from Carissa Makea (Auckland, New Zealand/Rosehill College) and Pellman, and SFU led 5-0 with just over 20 minutes to play. Siena got on the board at the 61:06 to take away the shutout effort from Saint Francis' backline and Samantha Zeiders (Hummelstown, Pa./Lower Dauphin).
 
SFU responded with its final tally as Pellman put a ball past Siena's backup goalkeeper Madi Gilbert, Webb fired in a long pass to Pellman, who converted on the opportunity.
 
Seven different Red Flash recorded a point in the contest, Zeiders finished with three saves in net.
