River Hawk Offense Shines in 5-2 Win against Siena
9/16/2016 7:09:00 PM | Field Hockey
ALBANY, N.Y. – Sophomore Torrie Huk (Milford, Del.) recorded her first career hat trick to help lift the UMass Lowell field hockey team (2-3) to a 5-2, neutral-site victory against Siena (1-4) on Friday afternoon in Albany.
Â
"We came out with a fantastic energy," said Head Coach Shannon Hlebichuk. "To go up three goals at the start was great. We were working on really taking care of our attacking opportunities all week. We let them back in the game in the second half, which was slightly disappointing, however, after a quick timeout, we collected ourselves and made the necessary changes to put another couple on the board."
Â
In addition to Huk, senior Eleonore Agneessens (Brussels, Belgium) and junior Christa Doiron (Worcester, Mass.) added one goal apiece. All five of the team's goals were assisted in the outing, including a pair of helpers from freshman Anouk Lalande (Brussels, Belgium). Freshman goalkeeper Eva Berkhout (Amersfoort, Utrecht, Netherlands), who earned her first career start, totaled four saves in the decision.
Â
The River Hawks outshot the Saints, 21-11, in the contest. The squad took control of the momentum early, jumping out to a 1-0 edge less than five minutes into play, as senior Annie Villare (Chelmsford, Mass.) carried the ball into the circle and dished a short pass to Huk for the shot on goal.
Â
UMass Lowell continued to keep the pressure on, adding two more goals in the next 15 minutes. Doiron put herself in a good position to successfully redirect a pass from classmate Kelly Mankowich (East Windsor, N.J.) past the Siena keeper before Agneessens cleaned up a loose ball in front of the cage during a corner opportunity, giving the visitors a 3-0 advantage at the break. Â Â
Â
Coming out of halftime, Siena retaliated with two quick goals to cut the deficit to just one at 3-2. The River Hawks regrouped and answered, however, when Lalande connected with Huk twice within six minutes, sealing the 5-2 outcome.
Â
With Friday's performance, UMass Lowell improves to 2-0 all-time against Siena. The River Hawks return to action on Sunday, September 18 when they welcome Saint Louis to Wicked Blue Field for Team IMPACT Day beginning at 12 p.m.
