Offense Dominates in 7-3 Win Over Northeastern
March 24, 2021 | Field Hockey
BC had three players find the back of the net twice, while Emily Gillespie completed her first start in goal on The Heights with a win.
Margo Carlin opened the scoring a minute into the game, scoring on a rebound off a penalty corner. She then fed Elizabeth Warner streaking in front of the cage, who dribbled around the goalkeeper to score.
Emily Huack and Lois Lekawael then scored each of their first-career goals to close out a four-goal opening frame for the Eagles.
Lekawael then added her second of the day in the second period on a rebound in front.
Carlin scored her second of the game just 52 seconds into the third period, redirecting the ball in midair and into the back of the net.
BC closed out the scoring with just three minutes to go after Fran Hsu passed the ball across the circle to a wide-open Warner.
