Field Hockey Stymied at King's, 4-1

WILKES-BARRE, Pa. – The Manhattanville College field hockey team was upended at King's College on Saturday afternoon, falling to the Monarchs by a 4-1 final. The Valiants fall to 2-6 on the season with the loss.

Manhattanville struggled offensively against the Monarch defense as the road team was limited to just one shot over the course of the game.

King's, meanwhile, fired 18 total shots with 12 going on target. The sustained attack effort allowed the Monarchs to build their way up to a four-goal advantage in the third quarter.

The duo of Ashley Thalassinos and Emma Clark accounted for the Monarchs' first half tallies. Thalassinos finished off a pair of assists from Clark in the 9th and 19th minutes to give the home team a 2-0 lead ath the half.

Thalassinos put the capper on a five-point game by assisting on Jessie Smalley's goal 1:26 out of the half before Clark put herself in the goal column four minutes later.

The Valiants were held without a shot attempt until 25 seconds remaining in regulation when Megan Keaveney (Clarkstown, N.Y./Clarkstown South) made the most of her lone chance by firing a shot past Grace Venis to break up the shutout with her team-leading fifth score of the season.

Manhattanville had all three of its goalies take to the field in the contest. Cat Morgan (Hopewell Junction, N.Y./John Jay Senior) played 18:15 in the start, allowing a pair of goals. Lidia Vasquez-Sinisi (Selden, N.Y./Newfield) made two stops while surrendering two scores in the ensuing 17:27 of game time, while Florence Harrison (Melbourne, Australia/Balwyn High School) closed out the day with 24:18 of scoreless time in the cage, making six saves.

The Valiants were held without a corner for the first time this season while the Monarchs took nine.
