Box Score

In the first of a two-game weekend, the Knights rallied back from a one goal, first half deficit in a big way. The Knights scored four unanswered goals in the second half to shut down Servedio Tournament host Hood College 4-1 in Frederick, MD.

 

Casey Geary scored her first hat trick of the season and teammate Kim Rizzo added a solo goal as Neumann halted Hood College in the second half. It was the first victory on the road for the Knights this season.

 

Hood College took the early lead finding the back of the net at the 13:20 minute. That tally would stand until Geary scored at the 58:16 mark on an assist from Shana Mitchell. Geary scored twice more in the final 11 minutes and Rizzo also scored during that span. Neumann held Hood without a shot in the second half and out shot the Blazers in match, 18-4. Kelsey Toomey and Elizabeth Raiburn each spent time in net combining for three saves on the day. The Knights are now 1-0 on the season.

 

Neumann will host Cedar Crest College on Saturday at 12:00 p.m.
