Field Hockey Rolls Past Cabrini, Wins Fourth-Straight

SWARTHMORE, Pa. - The Swarthmore College field hockey team won its fourth-straight contest with a 4-1 decision over Cabrini University on Wednesday night. 

Swarthmore spread out the scoring as they received goals from four different players. Jackie Crowley opened the game with the contest's first score, while the reigning Centennial Player of the Week Katherine Kohn followed with her second goal of the season. Sophia Hitchingham and Magdelana Jordan then closed out the game with a pair of second-half scores. The team scored a goal in each quarter of play.

Kohn, Hitchingham and Jordan each recorded a goal and an assist on the evening. Kohn has recorded a point in three-straight contests, while Jordan recorded her first career goal and assist. Hitchingham also continued her fast start to the season with her team-leading third goal and seventh point.

HOW IT HAPPENED
- Crowley opened the scoring late in the opening quarter. Jordan carried the ball from midfield as she maneuvered past several defenders throughout the way. She then entered the circle and connected with Crowley on the left side of the cage, who rocketed a shot past the sliding goalie for the opening score. The Garnet controlled the majority of opportunities in the stanza with a 5-1 shot advantage.

- Swarthmore held its opponent without a shot in the second quarter. The Garnet expanded their lead with a goal from Kohn in the 28th minute. Sarah Cooper set up the scoring chance with a pass from the top of the circle, while Kohn received the ball from the left side and snuck it low past the goalie. 

- Hitchingham gave the Garnet a three-goal advantage in the third quarter. The junior added on early in the stanza after finishing a pass from Kohn at the opposite post. After creating traffic in front of the cage, Kohn fed the ball to Hitchingham from in front of the net as she was left wide open at the opposite corner, 3-0.

- Cabrini got a goal back in the fourth quarter following a corner attempt. However, Swarthmore capped off a successful evening with a late tally from Jordan. The first-year broke through with her first-career score off a rocket from the top of the circle. Hitchingham was credited with the assist off the corner attempt.
