SWARTHMORE, Pa. - The No. 24 Swarthmore College field hockey team dropped a heart breaker to Washington College, 4-3, on Wednesday night. The Garnet tied the game in the 56th minute, but were unable to force overtime against the Shorewomen. 

Gabriella Vasquez scored twice for the Garnet with the team's first and second goals of the evening. Katherine Kohn then tied the game late with an equalizer in the 56th minute until Washington countered with the game-winner in the 57th minute. Kohn moved into the program's top-10 all-time with her 30th career goal. 

Amelia Landry played an excellent game at both ends of the field. The junior tallied two defensive saves and was credited with two assists on offense.
