Box Score

WASHINGTON - Senior Annaka Groschinski had two goals to lead the five Eagles' scorers as American University defeated Colgate, 6-1, on Saturday in the final Patriot League field hockey game of the regular season.

The Eagles improved to 8-7 overall and finish league play at 4-2. The Raiders fell to 3-14 overall and 0-6 in the PL.

HOW IT HAPPENED

  • Junior Jette Dieckmann opened the scoring at the 7:06 mark, converting a rebound off a long shot from the right side by senior Annaka Groschinski.
  • Sophomore Noor Coenen hit a long blast from the right side that went just under the crossbar at 12:09.
  • Groschinski added the team's third after she took a feed from senior Rafaela Rubas at the left wing during the team's first penalty corner opportunity of the game.
  • Groschinski added her second goal on the day less than 10 minutes later after taking a penalty corner feed from senior Lucy Whalley and freshman Georgia Davies.
  • Davies and Borcherding both scored in the second half to put AU up 6-0 before Colgate's Taylor Casamassa put the Raiders on the board with 6:47 left to play.
  • American finished with advantages in shots (18-6) and penalty corners (7-1).
  • Senior Maura Jacobs and junior Caroline Miller each picked up one save in goal for the Eagles.

UP NEXT
